Abstract

Recent scholarship has focused on the gaps between the information skills college and university graduates have and the skills their new employers expect. Part of this discrepancy includes recent graduates being unable to transfer information literacy skills they learned as students into different contexts. One way for librarians to help address this gap is through Problem Based Learning (PBL). This poster will investigate a variety of case studies to demonstrate how PBL can help improve recent graduate’s information literacy skills in the workplace.
