 Message: Hi all,

I am a brand new librarian who will be working with the History Department at my institution to teach information literacy instruction sessions. As someone without a background studying history, I was wondering if anyone has recommended materials, literature, or other resources for someone looking to learn more about best practices within historical research. Specifically, I am interested in hearing about information literacy skills that may be unique to historical research (finding and evaluating primary sources, for example) and how you teach these skills to students. I will be working with a mix of undergraduate courses ranging from introductory to capstone courses.

Thank you in advance, and please let me know if I can provide any clarification.
