Integrating Library Acquisitions with the Curriculum.
Palmer, Richard P.
A team of information professionals, attempting to link acquisitions to the curriculum, student assignments, and bibliographic instruction at a junior college, met with deans, department heads, and faculty to develop course syllabi and choose supportive library materials. The information professionals made available to faculty library materials for student classroom use. Classroom presentations in library instruction focusing on new acquisitions and current holdings relevant to courses were held, and students took subsequent library tours and completed library assignments. The team felt the librarian-faculty-student coordination was successful in identifying library materials to be used, in making faculty and students aware of library services and use, and in involving information professionals more directly in the educational process. Guidelines for writing performance objectives, instructional improvement activity assessment sheets, and action planning worksheets are attached. (KP)
