Presenters were selected from a call for papers.
Conducting effective research is a fundamental legal skill, and research instruction provides an essential intellectual component in legal education. In our constantly changing information environment, legal research education must move law students towards becoming “information literate,” with an ability to articulate and evaluate the problem presented to them, identify appropriate information resources and use them correctly, evaluate and analyze research results, and apply the results to help solve their problem.
Presenters, chosen from a Call for Papers, will explore all aspects of legal research education and information literacy, including defining information literacy for legal professionals; the development of information literacy standards and outcome measurements; instructional techniques, evaluation, and assessment; and the preparation of law students to become lifelong learners in the legal research field.
