How can an existing library instruction program be reconfigured to reach basic sciences graduate students and other patrons missed by curriculum-based instruction?
The setting is an academic health sciences library that serves both the university and its affiliated teaching hospital.
The existing program was redesigned to incorporate a series of seven workshops that encompassed the range of information literacy skills that graduate students in the basic sciences need. In developing the new model, the teaching librarians made changes in pedagogy, technology, marketing, and assessment strategies.
Total attendance at the sessions increased substantially in the first 2 years of the new model, increasing from an average of 20 per semester to an average of 124. Survey results provided insight about what patrons wanted to learn and how best to teach it.
Modifying the program's content and structure resulted in a program that appealed to the target audience.

该背景是一所为大学及其附属医院服务的学术健康科学图书馆。
重新设计现有的计划,纳入一系列涵盖基础科学研究生所需的信息素养技能的七个研讨会。在开发新模型的过程中,教学图书馆员改变了教学法、技术、营销和评估策略。
新模型的前两年,参加课程的总人数大大增加,从每学期平均 20 人增加到平均 124 人。调查结果提供了有关用户想要学习什么以及如何最好地教授这些内容的见解。
