Short Description

Teaching information literacy using the Primo - one simple search can be challenging for the library instructor, especially when limited to one classroom period by the class instructor. The proposed presentation is addressing the problems that students are facing with the discovery search tool and discussing how to provide question based presentation and group exercises to engage students in their information retrieval, critical thinking, and information evaluation skills in information literacy instruction.
