Information Literacy: Teaching and Assessing
I am creating this list to help librarians identify the best books out there to improve teaching and assessing information literacy concepts. Please feel free to add books that have inspired, motivated and helped make you a better teacher. While this will start off with academic related library science books please add any I am missing and all books related to teaching and educational assessment are welcomed.
