Description

Offers practical ideas and exercises for librarians teaching research sessions for courses with a strong writing component in an age of AI and misinformation.

In an era when we are flooded with misinformation, it is increasingly difficult for students to find credible and relevant information for research projects. This book is a valuable guide for librarians supporting writing courses with a research component.

After laying a theoretical and practical groundwork, chapters include concrete examples of research instruction for courses with a strong writing component. There are lesson plans, ideas for writing and research exercises, and discussions of how librarians can effectively communicate with students and instructors in writing courses. The book helps librarians address the growing issue of generative AI, which is a problem (or opportunity) for all courses with a writing component.

Incorporating research and best practices, and grounded in the ACRL Framework, this accessible, conversational book is a practical, hands-on guide for busy librarians and professors who instruct students how to find reliable research sources for their writing courses.
