The mission of the Library Instruction Round Table (LIRT) is to provide a forum for discussion of activities, programs, and problems of instruction in the use of libraries; to contribute to the education and training of librarians for library instruction; to promote instruction in the use of libraries as an essential library service, and to serve as a channel of communication on library instruction between the ALA divisions, ALA and ACRL committees, state clearinghouses, Project LOEX, other organizations concerned with instruction in the use of libraries, and members of the Association.

    Undergraduate Research Fundamentals: Empowering Students
    When faculty invite librarians into their classrooms to teach undergraduates how to conduct scholarly research, it often occurs as a one-shot, with learning outcomes such as focusing topics, searching library databases, or evaluating sources for authority. Librarians rarely have an opportunity to explore with students the infrastructure that powers scholarly research, also known as the scholarly research ecosystem.
