indicators. Students should use information by recognizing the need,using it effectively, evaluating it, using it ethically and legally, and recognizing its changingnature. Since freshman engineering students need to learn the same things, engaging the newlibrarians in teaching basic information literacy components to freshman engineering studentsseemed to be a good place to train them.The learning process included three significant steps: Observation, reflection (and input), andpractice. A key component was to maintain the novice librarian’s engagement at each stage ofthe learning process. The novice librarians first observed sections of the in-class component,taught by an experienced engineering librarian, with the knowledge that they would be

, ethical, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information and its technologies and either as an individual or as a member of a group, uses information effectively, ethically, and legally to accomplish a specific purpose. ● Standard Five: The information literate student understands that information literacy is an ongoing process and an important component of lifelong learning and recognizes the need to keep current regarding new developments in his or her field.8Information Literacy is combined with writing and critical thinking to form the focus of thecurrent Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) at Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU). The QEP isa component of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools

and, as a result,bibliometrics methods have been adopted by research evaluation process. However, there aremany controversies around the topics of research assessment’ need, its methodology, and ethics,and whether the bibliometric methods could indeed produce a valid measurement for researchevaluation. Since bibliometrics has been an important field of research in library and informationscience and part of libraries professional practice for a long time, it seemed a natural transitionfor libraries to start offering bibliometrics services.Bibliometrics services as part of research evaluation process are more common in libraries fromcountries with national research assessment frameworks that are mostly specific to Europe. InU.S., these services

project, ”A Characterization of Enolase: A Glycolytic Enzyme in Plasmodium Yoelii”, was chosen to be presented at the International Science and Engineering Fair. Furthering her interest, Savannah designed a dehydration detector, ”Detecting Dehydration through Skin Conductivity”, that won first place in poster competitions of both the Society of Women Engineers and the Drexel Fresh- man IEEE. This inspired her to join IEEE, where she served as the outreach chair for one year followed by being elected President of the Student Branch. Savannah earned the IEEE Section Leader Scholarship, third place in the IEEE Undergraduate Paper Contest, and first place in the SAC Ethics Competition. She co-founded and organized the
