invited tooffer in-class instruction to students in an Entrepreneurship course as well as to visit theGraduate Qualifying Project course. The request came through the Management DepartmentChair, who stated it was made at the request of graduate students who attended the Business PlanResearch workshop. Course integrated exposure to information tools and strategies is ideal forthe library as more students are made aware of tools and can gain information competence priorto their venture start-up, and as Rodriquez recommends, while they have access to superiorinformation staff and resources. This approach also allows all students enrolled in the courseofferings to gain the advantage of having knowledge of all competitive information sourcesaccessible

imperative that there is buy-in throughout the organization for a successful marketing plan tobe implemented.13Librarians have been implementing marketing approaches in increasingly systematic ways. Inrecent years, several libraries have attempted to integrate marketing into library work flows.Hallmark Kennedy et al. provided a brief overview of the development and implementation of amarketing plan in an academic library. The resulting plan included a separate budget of $10,000to carry out activities to market the library.7 Conley and Tucker described the process of creatinga marketing plan beginning from a strategic plan and presented tools that may be helpful to thepractice of marketing in an academic library.8Other libraries have approached

study and the program to glean some more insights.We must repeat the experiment in different settings such as autonomous colleges, affiliated colleges, anddifferent geographies to enhance our understanding of use of the resources. Analyzing use of resources in thecontext of courses, faculty, and their teaching methods can also be helpful. We can also study correlation, ifany, between resources in use and performance at the examination.In general, students and even many faculty members are not sufficiently information literate – they do notknow sources of information and optimum ways to access them. It has to change. In case of students, wehave to integrate information literacy instruction across their engineering curriculum. 5, 6 and 7 This can

].Additionally one way for students to become independent and highly competent at findinginformation using limited resources is by integration into the engineering curriculum[9].In collaboration with the course instructor this study was initiated with the goals ofunderstanding the (1) use of standards by students during the design process and (2) acquisitionand organization of standards and codes within corporate engineering firms. The end result beinga foundational guide for library instruction of engineering standards literacy.Student Standard UsePrior to their final year of coursework, engineering students have little to no knowledge ofengineering standards. The students typically have limited knowledge of standards acquiredthrough internships
