The perceived value of theses published by the department identifies graduate studentsas target group for outreach and library-related educational programs.

A unique approach to integrate group learning among students isenvisioned even though students are not required to work in a group setting. Other sections of thecourse have an assignment involving group work, and a different mix of library learningactivities may be chosen for those sections.

literacy is commonly referenced as an increasingly important 21st century skillneeded in today's knowledge-based economy. ABET’s criterion 3.i declares that students have“a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.” Shuman,Besterfield-Sacre, and McGourty1 propose several attributes of lifelong learning, including“follow a learning plan; identify, retrieve, and organize information; understand and remembernew information; demonstrate critical thinking skills; and reflect on one’s own understanding.”These criteria align well with the core concepts of information literacy. Information literacy ismost popularly defined by the American Library Association as set of skills that enables theability to recognize the need

Overall, both models provide adequate means for standardsaccess but both individually are not financially sustainable.The primary way for an academic library to best provide cost effective access to standards for itsstudents is a hybrid between these two purchasing models [7]. This can be achieved only whenan academic library comes up with a standards collection development plan based on the needsof its researchers. This can be done by figuring out what exactly the needs are of the engineeringschool and what they specialize or focus their research and development in [9]. This allows theacademic library to purchase standing orders with aggregators and publishers that providestandards that are relevant to the

The college’s formal information literacy program began in2003/2004 with an initial focus on first-year, writing-intensive courses, followed bydepartmental adoption of discipline-specific, sequenced, curriculum-integrated informationliteracy programs.

An example of this type of exclusion is a citationanalysis performed after an intervention with no baseline or other comparison.

Following this initial one-shot session, few students followed up withlibrarians later in the semester to discuss the sources or research for their design project.Late in 2016, the teaching and library team determined the current lesson plan wasn’t the mosteffective way to convey content or effectively support students’ work on their projects.

Thus the structure of the project itself can be described and presented in away that carries cultural meaning for Navajo students.Further, design projects can be structured to blend culture and course material.
