Partnering with Faculty to Interweave Internet Instruction into College Coursework

Abstract

As increasingly rich Web resources become available across all disciplines and occupational programs, the question is not whether but how to best integrate them into our instructional efforts. One approach is for librarians to form partnerships with classroom faculty to create course‐related instructional exercises that include Internet resources. Librarians always have occupied a critical intersection point between the user with information needs and the worlds of resources available. What has changed recently is both magnitude and complexity. Web‐based exercises provide a means to re‐mold course‐related instruction once again to respond to newly emerging needs and contingencies.
