developing a library-run curriculum. Our project team at the University ofMinnesota interviewed graduate students in Civil Engineering to determine their needs in datamanagement and curation. We found many skill areas that were missing or needed support in thegraduate program and proposed a list of learning outcomes that might be addressed throughlibrary training efforts. This paper will focus on our resulting approach to providing DataInformation Literacy (DIL) instruction utilizing Google tools (Sites, Drive, YouTube) to presenta self-paced, interactive online course. The paper also provides an examination of our assessmentmethodology and discusses our findings after a pilot launch with Civil Engineering graduatestudents in Fall 2012

, students in this course have been offeredthe option of attending a hands-on library workshop and receiving extra credit on a relatedproject report. Since several hundred students enroll in over 25 sections of this course each fall,the workshop format was developed as an alternative to traditional one-shot library instruction,which is not practicable on this scale. To better assess how the workshops were serving thestudents in these large classes, a group of instructors from the class and the engineering librarianworked together to evaluate student success with research projects and overall informationliteracy within the freshman engineering curriculum. The first initiative was to design a citationstudy assessing submitted projects for quality and

required collaboration with the Assistant Dean of Freshman Experience in theengineering college and the freshman engineering professors to define content, identify logisticproblems and solutions to those issues, and address the inherent challenges of teaching bothfreshmen and engineering students. Because of these different filters, the class was developed inconsideration of the ABET and ALA/ACRL/STS standards1. Additionally, ENGR 101 hasevolved over time through continued collaboration with the ENGR 101 professors.In spring 2011, an Information Literacy grant was given to the Assistant Dean of Engineering.This grant enabled the two engineering librarians to develop curriculum to be included in allENGR 101 classes to address library information
