. For the last twodeliveries, the instructors have invited an engineering librarian to offer information literacysessions to help guide the students. While the librarians and instructors feel that it is importantfor students to become familiar with and know how to use specialized engineering researchdatabases, e.g. Compendex, Web of Science, ASCE Digital Library and others, we wonder whatinformation sources students actually use. And why? These questions have puzzled us and havemotivated this study.MethodologyIn this study, we used three sets of questions to obtain predominantly qualitative data: first, weasked the students to identify in writing the information tools or sources they plan to use toconduct their research.

The major contribution of the paper is to analyze students’ use of resources for their self-study for the comprehensive examinations so that teachers can plan their teaching and administrators andlibrarians can plan their resources.

Librarian held peer mentor meetings on a monthlybasis during the Business Librarian’s first year at JMU. Early meetings focused on campusculture, library procedures, and the promotion and tenure process. As the Business Librariansettled into her role, they began to spend more time talking about specific issues in her work as aliaison. These topics also arose during casual interactions in the office suite.Through these conversations, both librarians became more aware of the overlap between theirsubject areas. For instance, students working on business plan proposals often need to search forpatents, engineering standards, and information on materials science and manufacturingprocesses. The Business Librarian had sometimes struggled to help these

Rather than provide in-depth introductions to one or tworesources, the workshop would provide a high-level overview of a variety of resources. As first-year students were likely unfamiliar with the library, the workshop started with an introductionto the library as a physical space and the library website as a virtual space. Students learned howto use the library catalog to find books and e-books. They were also introduced to the library’sresearch subject guides, which provide relevant resources for individual subject areas. The bulkof the workshop featured

However, as the authorserves as the liaison to engineering, not business, a similar study with engineering faculty at UBwas planned.

This study intended to better understand how thelibrary and the engineering librarian, the author of this paper, could better support faculty in theirteaching, even if library resource instruction was not a direct part of the course.Literature ReviewExploring how engineering faculty

These changesaffected not only space planning, but also staffing requirements and service delivery methods,making it necessary to take a critical look at our existing libraries even when they are only eightyears old.

Drexel University aimed to solve noise andbehavior issues in the library by installing a Courtesy Clerk, a full time staff member whomaintains a “safe, pleasant, and courteous atmosphere in the library” [7]. Most academic libraries with noise issues are also facing space and design challenges.One of the more common problems occurred as libraries shifted to function primarily as studyspaces, or were rebranded as “learning commons,” with open floor plans and fewer—ornonexistent—book stacks [8].

engineers may use different words,there are many similarities between the ISP and the process that engineers use in design.Engineering design extends beyond the scope of ISP, but nonetheless, the skills used in ISP aredirectly applied when engineers approach a design problem. Author proposed that librarians canassist in preparing engineering students by framing information literacy around the engineeringdesign process. For example, Kuhlthau’s task initiation is a similar process to task definition,problem scoping, and creating a plan of action (see Table 1). Table 1.
