The librarian default is fighting for faculty buy/in, so what happens when you start off with faculty buy/in and must sustain it? That’s what happened in summer 2023 when faculty approached the Teaching and Learning department at Vanderbilt University Libraries about creating information and data literacy curriculum for their new first/year core curriculum.
