Bringing College Information Literacy to High Schools
In
this session, the presenters outline how academic and school librarians
collaborated to bring a college-level information literacy course to rural high
schools, extending positive impacts on college student success and equity to
high school students. Discussions include how library academic support
practices can be adapted to be more inclusive and equitable and how school
librarians can collaborate more intensely with English teachers to ensure
student success for all. Session recorded during the 2021 AASL National
