Librarians in academic libraries are often experienced in presenting library instruction to students in art history classes, but may be less familiar with incorporating information literacy instruction into studio art courses. Transitioning from single sessions to a multi-session programmatic approach can present an additional level of difficulty for librarians working with faculty colleagues. However, there are a multitude of ways for librarians to partner with faculty to reach students in all creative disciplines in a more sustained and effective way. In this panel, co-sponsored by the Teaching SIG and Art & Design School Library Division, the presenters will discuss how curriculum mapping helped to bridge the gap between faculty and librarians to introduce information literacy into the existing course scaffold in two different settings, one an art and design school library and the other the library of a small liberal arts college.
