Learning the Language of Information Literacy: Takeaways from ACRL’s Immersion Program

Abstract

When most people think of immersion programs, language immersion programs and summer- long trips to Europe or South America come to mind. However, when the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) does immersion, it speaks the language of information literacy and helps academic librarians become fluent. Now in its 13th year, the ACRL Immersion Program represents a respected learning opportunity for instruction librarians.
