Coordinator of Information Literacy & Instruction Duties:
 

As the Coordinator of Information Literacy & Instruction at the Oviatt Library, I work collaboratively with fellow library faculty members and teaching faculty to manage the library's information literacy instructional programs and insure that at all levels of the academic organization we are effectively implementing student centered and curriculum-integrated information literacy programming.  At CSUN Information Literacy strategies vary by department, but may include efforts based in Freshman Orientation/Seminar Courses, General Education Courses, Cornerstone and Capstone Classes in Each Discipline, or Information Competency Mastery Requirements.

Library Instructional Programming

The Oviatt Library has a robust instructional program that supports our information literacy programming.  Faculty can request a library lecture on research resources appropriate for specific subjects and individual classes. Call your Library Subject Specialist, use our instruction request form, or call 677-2277 to schedule. Please note: The library lecture is not officially scheduled until the librarian has made contact with the faculty member.
