Undergraduate Students Sociology Majors (Students) Information Literacy Information Skills Social Theories National Standards Partnerships in Education Social Sciences Librarians Faculty Professional Associations Computer Assisted Instruction Theory Practice Relationship Course Content This paper discusses a joint project of the American Library Association and the American Sociological Association. The goal of this collaboration is to guarantee that students of sociology, particularly sociology majors, develop strong information literacy skills during their undergraduate experience. The article talks about national standards for information literacy and how they relate to the sociology major. It presents examples for applying the sociology information literacy standards to course assignments and the sociology curriculum. We also provide suggestions for building linkages between sociology faculty members and social science librarians, as well as ways in which information literacy outcomes might be assessed in the sociology curriculum.
