Objective FGO.2.1 

 

Collaborate with Developmental Writing faculty and program
coordinator to assess and further develop IL practices

Foundational Goal 3

 

Expand IL and research support for all students at all COCC campuses. As the northern COCC campuses continue to grow and serve larger populations of the tri-county community, the library commits to the NWCCU’s accreditation standard of ensuring the same quality access to resources and assistance on every campus. The library understands that each campus has unique information needs and that it is important to provide a breadth of learning opportunities to meet individual student needs regardless of location.

Task Update: completed

 

 


 

Intermediate Goal 1

 

Identify COCC courses with an IL outcome and develop strategies to support those outcomes. Information Literacy is often embedded throughout the college curriculum. Identifying areas where IL is a course outcome allows the library to have a more comprehensive approach in support of all such courses and helping students build their research skills in a systematic and progressive way.

Objective IGO.1.1

 

Provide instructors support for the design of effective IL course assignments

Measurements & Timeline:

To be completed Spring 2016:

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

Objective IGO.1.3

 

Collaborate with faculty by exploring alternatives to course-offerings that integrate IL in curriculum

Task Update: completed

    • SPAM to identify CTE programs that have IL component but unable to integrate credit courses, and 
      determine IL needs via learning objects or IL session offerings; see AGO.1.1

Task Update: completed

 

 

Intermediate Goal 2

 

Collaborate and build close working relationships between librarians and other college faculty. The Library stays committed to helping instructors discover the opportunities offered by its rich collections and services and use of such resources to enhance learning and teaching.  Working closely with instructors, librarians may serve as catalysts supporting student learning and helping faculty take the best advantage of the resources the Library makes available.

Objective IGO.2.1

 

Introduce IL concepts in workshops for faculty, including new faculty orientation and part-time orientation

Measurements & Timeline:

To be completed Spring 2016:

Measurements & Timeline:

Measurements & Timeline:

To be completed Winter 2016:

    • Schedule a meeting with Andria Woodell and Kathy Smith to discuss library involvement in Teaching Commons

Task Update: completed

 

 

Intermediate Goal 3

 

Connect with other college support services (e.g., Tutoring & Writing Center) where the Library’s instructional role may be relevant to student experiences. The Library recognizes that IL skills develop as part of the overall student experience and campus support they receive for their success.  Promoting awareness of the Library’s role as it connects to other campus support services creates opportunities for students to see the role of the library within the context of their whole college experience.

Objective IGO.3.1

 

Explore creative partnerships with student support services          

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

 


 

Advanced Goal 1

 

Identify and provide support to specific academic and career programs where IL is integral to the student’s preparation for career success. IL is recognized as a statewide general education outcome and is embedded in COCC’s WR121/122 curriculum; however, a majority of current outcomes are dedicated to writing and to fully integrate IL into student success and experience, IL programming needs to go beyond what can be accomplished in the two course writing sequence and link directly to students’ career paths.

Objective AGO.1.1

 

Explore opportunities to provide discipline-oriented and subject-specific IL
support for current curriculum and degree-seeking programs and certificates and/or integrate credit class in CTE degree requirements

Measurements & Timeline:

To be completed Winter 2016:

    • SPAM to assess current practices where discipline-specific IL is provided in the classroom and/or where progress was made in creating discipline-specific credit courses and strategize on follow up steps

Task Update: completed

To be completed Spring 2016:

    • Schedule meetings with discipline stakeholders to strategize on subject-specific IL needs and how best to address them; see IGO.1.3

Task Update: completed

 

Advanced Goal 2

 

Offer comprehensive instruction in the development of IL via the library’s credit course curriculum. The Library’s credit course curriculum helps students develop and enhance their IL skills in a comprehensive way. Such courses take students beyond the specific, sometimes limited IL goals and outcomes of WR121/WR122 and individual, 50-minute instructional sessions or other subject-specific courses. The Library’s credit course curriculum allows students to become fully engaged in the development of their IL skills.   

Objective AGO.2.1

 

Promote credit-bearing courses (LIB 100, 127, 227) as cornerstones of IL

on all COCC campuses for transfer-seeking students

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

Objective AGO.2.2

 

Explore student success outcomes for students taking credit-bearing courses

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

 


 

IL Program Support and Sustainability Goal 1

 

Commit to professional development for library instructors and establish ongoing opportunities for continuous improvement in teaching and learning. The library instructional staff commits to serving our students with integrity and excellence. Professional development opportunities are crucial to ensuring this quality and enacting proficient execution of this plan. Librarians need opportunities to expand existing competencies, gain diversity of thought through meaningful cross-disciplinary work, and contribute to the greater professional field of library and information science.

Objective ILP.1.1

 

Use professional organizations and consortium resources for training, including involvement in conferences and workshops

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

Objective ILP.1.2

 

Advocate for funding and IL training for all levels of library staff

Measurements & Timeline:

To be completed Spring 2016:

    • Create timeline for professional development trainings to be held during staff meetings

Task Update: completed

 

 

IL Program Support and Sustainability Goal 2

 

Commit to future of IL through participation in consortial, statewide and local advocacy efforts. The library recognizes a need to coordinate organized, continuous discussions about the value of IL and libraries. Planned and consistent advocacy efforts ensure sufficient funding for quality IL support and services, establish the library as a modern resource relevant to student needs, and provide opportunities for instructional staff to participate in and learn from vital professional conversations.

Objective ILP.2.1

 

Provide vocal advocacy for IL via library organizations, consortia, and statewide initiatives and agencies (e.g., ILAGO, OCCLA, CCWDevEd, OLA)

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

Objective ILP.2.2

 

Support IL goals via librarian participation in college-wide committees

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year

 

 

IL Program Support and Sustainability Goal 3

 

Provide infrastructure resources and tools to support the delivery of IL instruction. To best address students’ IL needs, the library requires appropriate infrastructure, space and technology. Providing these relevant tools, resources and locations allow students to engage in lessons and actively participate in the class, which is essential to successfully achieving IL instructional outcomes.

Objective ILP.3.1

 

Work to establish an instructional space dedicated to IL                   

Measurements & Timeline:

None for 2015-16 Academic Year
