Learn Like a Librarian: Media & Information Literacy (Part 1)
Today’s world is overflowing with information: not only is the amount of information we interact with daily going up, but the ways we take it in, share it, and investigate it are shifting and growing all the time, making for a vast and confusing landscape! This 2 part class will get you learning and thinking like a librarian to evaluate information critically and build a toolbox of resources for finding out what you need to know and avoiding common mis- and dis- information pitfalls.
Part One of this class will introduce and develop fundamental concepts of information literacy and show how they relate to academic and traditionally published information.
(This event will be held in the Meeting Rooms at the front of the Library.
This is a re-scheduled date for PART ONE of the Learn Like a Librarian class, which was originally scheduled for September 3rd and had to be cancelled.
PART TWO of this class will now be held at 6pm Tuesday September 24th and 2pm Friday September 27th)
