The mission of the instruction program at the University Libraries is to support the teaching, research and extension mission of the University by teaching information literacy skills in order to promote academic success, personal and professional decision-making, civic participation, and life-long learning. Librarians teach information literacy skills to university students through teachable moments at the public reference desk, individual consultations, and by formal classroom instruction.
