Information Literacy For One And All
The UCF Libraries has created a new department on the main campus: Information Literacy and
Outreach (ILO). The new department will have three main areas of responsibility:
coordination and planning of the Libraries' instructional services, including support of the
university's Information Fluency (IF) Quality
 |
|
A group of students making the best of their knowledge.
Information Literacy and Outreach will help hone their skills. |
Enhancement Plan (QEP); support and coordination of
library services to faculty members teaching online courses and students taking online courses; and
marketing of the Libraries' information services. While the department is in its developmental
stage, acting department head Elizabeth Killingsworth will lead the department until a national
search can be conducted. The Information Literacy and Outreach department is supported by
Jason Martin, Instructional Initiatives Librarian; Rachel Viggiano, Distance Learning Librarian;
Renee Montgomery, Outreach Librarian; and Erica Baker, Senior Library Technical Assistant.
The UCF Library's very own

Director's Cut Makes A Great Donation Opportunity
With the imminent opening of the new School of Film & Digital Media many of the
Libraries' movie collection, especially DVD's, are leaving us. Help us rebuild our movie
collection by donating duplicate copies of DVD's from your home collection. A good and
well advertised movie collection will be sure to increase foot traffic through the various
library buildings, inevitably increasing the use of our computers, study rooms, subscription
databases and, of course, books.
Bring your old duplicate movies to the Circulation Desk on the second floor of the
main library building. Your donation will be cataloged and added to our movie
collection. Don't forget to fill out the gold donation form. After completing the
form, you will receive an acknowledgment letter and the donor may take a tax deduction for the
estimated price. This is an ideal way to donate to the Libraries' collection and a great
way to keep all of the rest of the students, faculty, and staff who use our video collection,
depending on the genre of movie, well informed and entertained.
