Information Literacy – Core: Faculty Engagement Materials

Follow

Credo’s librarians have developed flyers, LibGuides, PowerPoint presentations, and more that can help you get the word out about the Credo IL materials you’ve subscribed to. For more marketing help, please see the Marketing Your IL Program section of our IL Strategy Handbook.

Please note that to better reflect the material that is included, Instruct is now named Information Literacy – Core.

Information Literacy – Core Standards Map
Credo's instructional content is mapped to several standards:

  • AAC&U VALUE Rubrics (Information Literacy and others)
  • ACRL Framework
  • ACRL Standards
  • ACRL Visual Literacy Standards
  • ANZIIL (Standards for Australia and New Zealand)
  • SCONUL (Standards for Britain and Ireland)

Each individual video and tutorial is mapped to these standards in the above spreadsheet. The standards map lists some multimedia items that have been retired by Credo, because some customers still choose to use them.
