Google still appeared to be the preferred choice to find scholarly papers even thoughlibrary instruction clearly demonstrated the importance of library-subscribed electronicresources.The engineering librarian has observed that many students in their middle college years contacthim for more research help, and sometimes these students are asking basic questions, so it isclear that students would benefit from more library instruction geared towards this specificgroup. As Nerz and Weiner have described, an approach to integrating information literacyinstruction into the engineering curriculum across each year of the undergraduate program can bean effective way to meet this need (2001)3

Fosmire [2] have made the argument that informationliteracy can be integrated into a number of student outcomes. However, the engineeringtechnology (ETAC) student outcomes changed around 2011 by explicitly mentioninginformation skills, extending the old 3.g, “ability to communicate effectively,” [3] to 3.g, “anability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and non-technicalenvironments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature.” [4]With this change to the student outcomes in engineering technology, there is the potential fornew opportunities for collaboration between librarians and those programs. While the work oflibrarians in EAC programs has been well documented, for example, at every

The librarian demonstrated how researching a topic wasdifferent based on whether students used the UBC catalogue, journal indexes or theInternet. She included a process to help the students start their research with an academicpaper, and discussed the differences between primary and secondary sources. Shefocused on how to find information on topics gleaned from the course curriculum, suchas tsunamis, volcanoes, supernovae, and glaciers and demonstrated how to find thesetopics in encyclopedias and handbooks as well as how to find videorecordings, books

The main reason for this, he argued, was that few, if any, librarians had thetechnical knowledge and experience that would allow them to assess the quality of
