contents Community College Librarian Views of Student Information Literacy Needs Don Latham Melissa Gross Heidi Julien Community Colleges Community College Students Librarians Librarian Attitudes Library Instruction Academic Libraries Information Literacy Self Concept Research Skills Student Needs This paper shares the results of semi-structured interviews with 30 community college librarians who have instruction duties. The interviews explored these librarians' perceptions of students' information literacy (IL) strengths and weaknesses as well as their views of students' self-perceptions. Participants believe that students are confident in their ability to find information and are proficient in using technology to find information. Participants consider students' overconfidence to be an IL weakness along with: not understanding the research process; being overwhelmed by information; and, in some cases, having poor reading comprehension skills. Views are mixed as to whether students' IL skills vary based on their program of study.
