engineering students enrolled in a workexperience course, 47% of the students described the task of finding technical reports as difficult[7]. In addition, undergraduate students often have erroneous perceptions about the ethical use ofinformation found on the web and the need to include citations [12].Literature ReviewLibrarians and engineering professors have tried many approaches to solve the problemspreviously noted in student assignments. Some notable examples have shown success inredesigning an assignment to emphasize information fluency skills in combination withinstruction from a librarian. Williams, Blowers and Goldberg [14] incorporated informationfluency into a thermodynamics course by revising assignments to require students to find data

literacy as “a set ofabilities to identify the need for information, procure the information, evaluate the informationand subsequently revise the strategy for obtaining the information, to use the information and touse it in an ethical and legal manner, and to engage in lifelong learning.” Engineering studentsoften have difficulty finding and evaluating resources. Hanlan and Ziino [3] found that first-yearengineering students lacked skills to conduct a proper literature search and could not locateappropriate references for constructing prototype devices. They also found that engineeringstudents lacked the ability to judge the quality of cited sources and were relying almostpredominantly on web based searches. Palmer and Tucker [4] found that

Although this appears to be more of a question ofresearch ethics than electronic lab notebook failure, the Abu Dhabi scientist isunderstandably now hesitant of adding any of his research online in order to prevent asimilar or worse situation.All of the above comments refer to the professional edition of Lab Archives. The Librarysubscribed to the classroom edition as well and received feedback from one physicsinstructor. He was initially very excited to use the classroom edition as he was lookingfor a more streamlined and easier solution to the organization and submission

workshops sponsored by thecollege on topics such as finding funding, copyright, publishing, and reading of journal articles.Even so, as most new engineering resources have moved online, the engineering librarians feltthat graduate students were unaware of library resources and services, and there was a need for aprogram of library instruction targeted toward the students.CoE doctoral students and researchers are required by the college to complete a four-sessionResponsible Conduct of Research and Scholarship (RCRS) program if they are working onfederally funded research projects. This program includes sessions on Authorship, DataManagement, Conflict of Interest, and Professional Ethics. Although the librarians are present atand offer input to all

than those in computer science (128 vs 40titles), with many of these titles covering topics leaning towards the “humanistic” side oftechnology, such as history, education, ethics, and business. While these may notnecessarily be considered engineering titles, the topics are extremely valuable toengineering education in general and are not very well represented in our collections.Another benefit we identified is that many of the used titles were provided by publishersthat we do not regularly consider for acquisitions, such as Trans Tech Publications, WorldScientific, Nova Science Publishers, and Smithers Rapra.

manuscript, there were benefits for theinstructors as well. The instructors learned new material from each other as the courseprogressed making it easier to teach the next time with another instructor or subject. An addedbenefit for this team approach was the creation of a network of guests and participants willing toadvocate for a RDM course across campus. Our students, in their post-assessment, mentionedthey would like to learn more about ethical aspects of data management. With the guest speakerapproach and knowing whom to approach on campus, we will be able to include ethicaltreatment of data in future classes. Thus, there is a need to communicate with all stakeholdersand bring units together to keep the overall mission whole rather than each
