Presentation Description

TRAILS and SAILS are national, standardized assessments of information literacy skills. TRAILS offers four assessments based on 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th grade standards; SAILS test questions are based directly on the ACRL information competency standards. Attendees will develop an understanding of the TRAILS and SAILS tests, how they have been used, and whether they would be useful for their own institutions.
