How Effective Is Library Instruction?

Paterson, Ellen R.

RQ, v18 n4 p376-77 Sum 1979

A multiple-choice pretest, given to 113 biology and 58 health education college students, measured their knowledge (before library instruction) of specific information sources required to complete course assignments. Mixed tabulated results show that prior instruction, in a class or tour of the library, did not guarantee higher mean scores. (JD)
