Abstract

Librarians and faculty have been traversing on parallel paths during the past few decades.The rapid explosion of technological integration into nearly every aspect of daily life has merged the separate paths into one.Librarians and faculty must now travel in tandem in order to prepare students to become successful members of today's society.If students are to effectively contribute to today's workforce, it is imperative that they are capable of communicating, receiving, and evaluating the barrage of information from multiple directions.Highly toned information literacy skills are the key to unlocking the potential for lifelong learning.
