contents Supplementing the One-Shot Session: Tools to Enhance Instruction beyond the Computer Lab Becker, Bernd W. Information Literacy Information Skills Librarians Library Instruction Library Services Supplementary Education Educational Resources Instructional Materials Electronic Libraries It is always a pleasure to stumble upon a discussion about library topics as they become mainstream issues. Some of the satisfaction is simply validation, knowing that the work librarians are doing has implications that extend beyond the library's four walls. But usually the author is excited that the rest of the world finally "gets it." Last fall, "Wired" magazine published an article by author and "New York Times" contributor Chris Colin (2011). In "Rate This Article: What's Wrong With the Culture of Critique," Colin observes that there is a massive trend to rate and review every piece of information people consume and experience. Colin's concern reflects the core of librarians' efforts to develop the information literacy skills of students and patrons. They want students to be savvy consumers of information who can distinguish between facts and opinions. If librarians are going to reach out and teach these skills, they are going to have to extend themselves beyond the one-shot session. There are simply too many nuances for them to explain or demonstrate in a one-shot, so they focus on what they know to be vital skills, provide their contact information, and hope for the best. However, if they examine some of the software and opportunities that are available, they see an arsenal of tools to supplement the in-person, one-shot sessions. The author presents a list of most free resources that will extend educators' information literacy instruction beyond the classroom and make it available online.
