InfoLit with a sense of humour

The University of Alberta Augustana Library has made their award-winning DVD, It Changed the Way I Do Research - Period: Augustana Talks Information Literacy, available for free online.  Here's a promo teaser from YouTube:


This isn't something to show to your students; it's much more a multimedia explanation of how the InfoLit program runs at Augustana, but it's done in a really fun style - kudos to student narrator and co-writer Kyle Harland!

This 30 minute video (DVD) documents and promotes the vision of Information Literacy at Augustana and the various components of Augustana's Information Literacy Program. These components include 21 for-credit discipline-specific Information Literacy courses embedded into the curriculum, a variety of assessment practices, an annual Information Literacy workshop for faculty and librarians, and Information Literacy Awards for students and faculty.

If you do download the entire 30-minute program, be sure to catch the Information Literacy song 24-minutes in.
