Short-Term Library Skill Competencies: Arguing for the Achievable

Abstract

Leaders in the bibliographic instruction field advocate high performance standards for librarians and students involved in the library use education process.The focus of these standards has shifted over time; however, today librarians are urged to teach at extremely dynamic levels and students are encouraged, through this teaching, to become lifelong, expert library researchers.The authors of this article question the practical nature of these standards and affirm for themselves a simpler, more achievable set of goals and objectives.
