Book Description
At the 1989 annual meeting of the American Library Association (ALA), the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) used a think tank as a dynamic mechanism for exploring future directions both in the discipline of library user education and for the Bibliographic Instruction (BI) Section of ACRL. Discussion centered on the following issues: primary user groups and how have they changed during the past decade; how the curricular reform movement affects the content of bibliographic instruction programs; the appropriateness of information literacy as a phrase to characterize BI librarians' instructional programs for the upcoming decade; and how professional education programs in library and information science can respond to changes. The four discussion issues suggested necessary change or transition, particularly for BI, but more broadly affecting reference and public service, library missions and goals, and the educational focus of the library and information science profession. The eight papers included in the collection are: (1) "Bridging the Gap between the Think Tanks" (Donald Kenney); (2) "The Think Tank Papers: Are We in the Ball Park?" (Elizabeth Frick); (3) "Changing Users: Bibliographic Instruction for Whom?" (Lizabeth A. Wilson); (4) "The Changing User and the Future of Bibliographic Instruction: A Perspective from the Health Sciences Library" (James Shedlock); (5) "Curriculum Reform: The Role of Academic Libraries" (Maureen Pastine and Linda Wilson); (6) "Information Literacy: One Response to the New Decade" (Hannelore Rader and William Coons); (7) "Education for the Second Generation of Bibliographic Instruction Librarians" (Martha L. Hale); and (8) "The Future of Bibliographic Instruction and Information Literacy for the Academic Librarian" (William Miller). "Educational Roles of Academic Libraries: State of the Art and an Agenda for the Future" (Randall Hensley and Beth Sandore), a summary document from the conference, is appended. (JLB)

Evaluating Library Instruction
Author: Diana D. ShonrockPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
This easy-to-use guide offers a wealth of materials to assist you in planning and creating evaluation instruments for your library instruction program. It was prepared by a unit of the American Library Association, the Library Instruction Round Table Research Committee, whose members analyzed hundreds of evaluation forms gathered from all types of libraries, selecting the most consistently useful items. User-instruction programs are costly, and their effectiveness must be documented with hard data. But with busy staff, evaluation has often been more preached than practiced. One problem has been finding the expertise to create a valid measuring instrument that will provide effective results in a reasonable amount of time. Under the editorship of its chair, Diana Shonrock, the Research Committee has addressed these problems with a "recipe" book that simplifies the planning and creation of evaluation instruments. Here, in one expertly assembled guide, you will find step-by-step advice on survey planning and well over 500 sample questions for evaluation of class work, instructors, and instructional materials and equipment. No other guide offers this level of "plug-and-play" assistance to get your evaluation program under way or is more up-to-date in its coverage of the electronic aspects of modern library instruction.
