contents Measuring Library Impacts through First Year Course Assessment Luetkenhaus, Holly Hvizdak, Erin Johnson, Corey Schiller, Nicholas College Freshmen Library Instruction Information Literacy Outcomes of Education Library Skills Skill Development Student Research Research Papers (Students) Correlation College Libraries Essays Citations (References) Writing Skills This study shows the value of library instruction in the building of first-year students' information literacy skills and it illustrates librarians as partners in leading student learning outcome assessment. Using research papers from a required first-year course, raters from units across the institution evaluated student information literacy (IL) skill development. Students performed at a "Proficient First Year" level for most information literacy skill areas. The authors found there was a significant correlation between IL skill development and participation in one or more library instruction sessions. For this reason, the authors posit that liaison librarians are in a stronger and more stable collaborative position when they can demonstrate that their work has positive correlations with student learning.
