TRU Library is attempting to transform our information literacy program into a structured program that will fully integrate library learning outcomes. The English 1100 Library Instruction Pilot (ELIP) project was developed as a collaboration between the Library and the English Department, with the goal of expanding library instruction to support student success and belonging. From the perspective of creating impact, ELIP is working very well; however, tangible successes have not necessarily ensured that the program will continue. Participants in this session will learn about the ELIP program, including early assessment results, and we will discuss various complications to sustaining positive change.
