‘This book will be helpful in enhancing collaborations between librarians and teaching staff, as well as between librarians and students. This book could encourage students and academic staff to apply real data and information in their academic works.’

- Dr Atefa Tayeb, Chancellor, Isteqlal Institute of Higher Education, Afghanistan,

‘The book provides valuable insights into the innovative and transforming role of libraries in contributing to student engagement internationally. This is a “must read” book for academics and librarians who are key facilitators in responding to change.’

- Professor Beena Giridharan, Deputy Pro Vice- Chancellor, Curtin University, Malaysia,

How can a library engage students and pro-actively create information literacy? What impact might that have? These vital questions are addressed, at an international level, in this timely new book. Delving into various real-life case studies of interventions in colleges and universities from Canada to India, the chapters in this edited collection showcase relevant examples of efforts to improve engagement with library resources. The authors highlight instances of specifically designed student-centered workshops, a university partnership with a writing center, the role of a library in Africa as a source of socio-economic transformation, and many more examples of innovations and collaboration between libraries and students. The experiences shared by authors in this book are a valuable resource for librarians and researchers across the world interested in how their collaborative efforts can promote the value of information literacy and help create opportunities for students to build their library practice skills.

As the role and practices of the academic library are evolving, so too is the relationship between the library and other areas of the university. This volume explores the library’s relationship with students, including the library-based learner, creating engaging classroom experiences, the library as an extension of the classroom, and more.
