TEACHER'S
MANUAL THE
LIBRARY EXPERIENCE: SHARING THE RESPONSIBILITY is a
process-oriented textbook designed to teach middle school or
junior high school students information skills relevant to
their school work across the disciplines. Rather than
offering students disembodied lessons on discrete location
skills, THE LIBRARY EXPERIENCE provides students with
a purposeful context in which essential skills in locating
and using information effectively can be taught. Each
chapter in the textbook focuses on a step in the
information-seeking process; chapter-by-chapter, students
are introduced to library resources that will help them
accomplish each step of the process. In this context, the
library media specialist and the classroom teacher work
together to help students analyze their informational needs,
to locate potentially useful resources, to evaluate and
organize the information they collect, and to evaluate the
projects the students ultimately produce.
