- Improving Catalog Search Skills through Quest-Based Activity in the Library Etienne Vallée Carrie Fair School Libraries Learning Activities Middle School Students High School Students Online Catalogs Search Strategies Individualized Instruction Information Retrieval Online Searching This article discusses a quest-based approach to teaching catalog skills and getting to learn more about students reading interests. Quest-based activities are meaningful and can be quite engaging, not to mention entertaining and stimulating (Snelson 2022). They provide choice and differentiate the learning experience, as well as multiple pathways to get to the end goals (Farber 2018). Quest-based activities present the opportunity for students to open learning pathways based on the choices that they make (Isaacs 2017), individualizing the learning. During this activity, students explored the library catalog as well as several tools to find a next read. They developed information-location skills, and they provided the librarians with suggestions to add to the collection.
