An Information Literacy Umbrella for Instruction
Instructional activities at Joyner Library, East Carolina University, currently include course-integrated instruction, online tutorial use, class web pages, research consultations, a customizable subject guide database, and a writing contest. These instructional activities can be more usefully planned and evaluated with proper program building. With an improved planning process, an “Information Literacy umbrella” will also allow the instruction librarians to target certain student groups more effectively, specifically incoming first-year students, distance education students, and students who are participating in a new 3-year-to-degree program.

Information Literacy or Literate Information?
This paper is based on the results of a recently concluded 15-year longitudinal study of highly effective teachers conducted by Ken Bain, which argue that library based information literacy duplicates in poor fashion what effective teachers, with well-developed curricula, already accomplish with their students. Furthermore, information literacy does not produce well-educated students in any classic sense of the word.
