Library Science and Information Literacy Library Science and Administration Mentoring and Academic Development

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to describe the components of a mentoring program for library science students, and to discuss the design and implementation of a librarian/student collaboration to teach information literacy to health sciences students. The library student was paired with a subject librarian to be a co-instructor in the course and participated in the full cycle of teaching from preparation of a lesson plan to grading students’ work. The establishment of the mentoring program and one library student’s experience are described in detail. The impact of this collaboration on the students, the instructor and the library student is addressed. The article discusses the benefits and challenges of establishing a mentoring program for library students to gain teaching and research experience.
