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.

    Do you support graduate students and early career researchers? Please join us for "Informed Research in Practice: Libraries Empowering Graduate Students and Early Career Researchers," a presentation by Australian scholars Christine Bruce and Susan Gasson, who will discuss their new model called the "Faces of Informed Research," which outlines how graduate students and early career researchers experience using information when they conduct research. The model offers ideas for academic librarians on how we can better support the success of new researchers.
