© American Society for Engineering Education, 2010 Learning with the Students: Chemical Engineering Students Help Design and Shape Delivery of Instructional Information for Their DisciplineAbstractDuring the last year and a half, the West Virginia University Libraries purchased LibGuides, aweb-based subject guide template, to make important research and study information available inone convenient place for our students and faculty. The engineering librarian decided to focus onchemical engineering for the first focused engineering guide. The development of the guidebecame an opportunity to invite senior chemical engineering students to participate in suggestingcontent for the guide and to use and critique
broached appeared unfamiliar to them, even though, in somecases, they had even provided instruction on some of those concepts. This provides a wonderfulnew opportunity for collaboration between the libraries and the ECET department as they wrestlewith the most effective ways to integrate lifelong learning and information literacy throughoutthe curriculum. The liaison’s work on the subcommittee and attendance at the faculty meetingshave provided the groundwork for this library involvement in future course revisions and maywell prove to have the most impact on information literacy as the curriculum is enacted.

In STEM disciplines, where research is oftentimes conducted in secure lab facilities,engagement is particularly challenging. In 2016, librarians at North Carolina State Universityembarked on a project to overcome this difficulty by joining selected research groups andattending regular lab meetings.
