I want my students to learn...

On these pages you will find materials that you can use in your classes to help students learn and practice specific skills related to information literacy. In addition to the information literacy skills related to finding, evaluating, understanding, and using information, you will also find materials related to using our Special Collections and Archives and creating digital projects.

On each page, you'll find a variety of materials that could include activities, lesson plans, tutorials, readings, videos, and more. Some of these materials will have creative commons licenses that allow for non-commercial adaptation.
