Visual literacy, meet information literacy

Trinity College Library, Dublin

Libraries: They aren’t just for reading anymore

 
Meghan Sitar of the University of Texas Library System forwarded a link to the virtual poster session at the 2007 American Library Association conference. The title of the session is “Eye to I: Visual Literacy Meets Information Literacy.” According to the description

The poster sessions offer practical approaches to teaching information
literacy and visual literacy, new ideas for integrating multiple literacy
skills into your instruction, and tips for collaborations that connect
information literacy, visual literacy, and student learning.

Sounds like fun. The conference is June 24 in Washington, D.C. According to the site, the presentations will remain online until December 2007.
