Forging Collaborative Relationships Between School and Academic Librarians to Prepare All Students for the Future
Please add the abstract if submitting a scholarly work, or detailed description if submitting a creative work.
This paper reports on collaborations that helped to strengthen connections between academic librarians and secondary school librarians to improve equity, diversity, and inclusion while working together towards the shared goal of preparing all students for college, career, and life. The premise behind this work is that integrated information literacy instruction is a powerful tool in moving towards a more equitable and just society because it can level the playing field for under-served students. We report on cross-institutional collaborations through which we developed a sample information literacy scope-and-sequence document that covers the entire K-20 journey and explored ways to teach information literacy with skills-transfer in mind.
