Byte-Sized Pieces: Equipping Academic Librarians to Integrate Technology into Library Instruction through Manageable, Maintainable, and Meaningful Staff Development. Internet Reference Services Quarterly, 19(3-4), 283-296.http://hdl.handle.net/10323/3346Technology changes how classroom instruction happens and, unlike K-12 educators who receive pedagogical training, academic librarians are not always experts in teaching information literacy – especially in 21st century ways with technology tools. As such, how to equip on-the-ground academic librarians to effectively teach with technology tools while still addressing the ACRL information literacy competency standards needs to be considered. This article shares how one academic library addressed this need while also considering how to: assess knowledge, competencies, and needs; share information in meaningful ways; and encourage librarians to build their technology knowledge independently and as part of a cohort.Academic librariesProfessional developmentTechnology trainingArticle
