It was evident from that talk that the University of Richmond is committed to finding ways to integrate Information Fluency skills into our teaching and learning environments. To begin the process, a series of workshops will be held on a monthly basis beginning on January 28th. These workshops are to be attended by the Academic Technology Services and Outreach and Instruction Services teams. We will be teaching each other the skills we need to ensure that we are information fluent and we will be spending time talking about what the "ideal" information fluency picture at UR should be."
