Description
Examining the institutional repository (IR) through the lens of the ACRL Framework on Information Literacy for Higher Education provides fresh perspectives and opportunities for IR collection development priorities and outreach efforts. In this presentation, three IR managers will explore different ways in which the IR can work in tandem with information literacy (IL) efforts, including: how ingesting primary sources from the archive can spark new pedagogical opportunities; how the IR can be used to teach concepts related to scholarly communication such as peer review, copyright, author’s rights, etc.; and how the IR can showcase, disseminate, and preserve student work and induct them into the scholarly conversation as authors in their own right.
