Inhaltsangabe

Librarians, university faculty, and students share stories of employing service-based or experiential learning experiences for students in higher education. They cover library and information literacy credit-bearing courses or sponsors of undergraduate community-based research, library support for courses with applied service-based projects in the disciplines, and the library as location for student-led educational outreach events and projects. Among specific topics are using service-learning experiences to engage students in information literacy classes, support for student-driven projects: library mini-grants and service learning, integrating library research and information literacy into archaeological service-learning, banned books and dangerous fictions: co-creating an annual banned books read out, and the ABCs of nutrition and literacy: combining children's books with health awareness in an academic service-learning project.
