ARLIS/NA 46th Annual Conference

This 90-minute panel session will explore ways in which art librarians have broadened their concept of information literacy instruction to develop teaching and learning opportunities outside of the traditional library classroom. As Lorelei Rutledge and Sarah LeMire argue in their recent article, "Broadening Boundaries: Opportunities for Information Literacy Instruction Inside and Outside the Classroom," expanded notions of teaching and learning that go beyond standard instruction environments can promote increased student engagement with information literacy in the curriculum (2017). From participation in critiques to studio visits to voluntary and informal workshops, panelists will share how these out-of-classroom experiences encourage deeper connections between information literacy and the creative process.
