Short Description

This session explores a partnership between writing teachers and librarians embodied in a one-credit information literacy course in support of the research central to first semester composition classes. By examining the rich conclusions about teaching, research, and writing this one partnership led to, this panel argues for more collaborative approaches to teaching research strategies, citation practices, and inter-textual ethics.
