  • You Only Get One Shot: Critically Exploring and Reimagining the One-Shot Instruction Model Pho, Annie Abumeeiz, Salma Bisbee, Kristina Vela Mody, Nisha Romero, Renee Tranfield, Wynn Worsham, Doug Library Instruction Teaching Methods Curriculum Evaluation Curriculum Development Criticism Novices Librarians Academic Libraries Acculturation Empowerment Organizational Culture Librarian Attitudes This article explores the one-shot library instruction model by asking critical questions about how it has become ubiquitous in the field. The authors developed these questions with the intent to understand how early-career librarians become acculturated to one-shots, how social identity and positionality shape instructional practices, its impact on burnout, equity, and sustainability, and how the one-shot could be reimagined. This article employs personal critical reflection as a methodology, using interviews with the team of authors and two external participants. Analysis of the interview data showed themes of organizational acculturation with one-shot training, empowerment/disempowerment to employ different instruction models, and the tension between the transactional and relational nature of library instruction. Through these reflections, the article advocates that a relational instruction model helps promote equitable, reflective teaching and learning experiences for librarians and students alike as a way to disrupt the tradition of the one-shot.
