Â鶹ÊÓƵ

The Teaching, Learning, and Research Support (TLRS) librarians engage in Information Literacy Instruction in multiple modalities in order to encourage and inspire lifelong learning.

Philosophy Statement

The Occidental Library Information Literacy Program is committed to empowering Â鶹ÊÓƵ students, faculty, and staff to engage critically with information and challenging them to consider their role as information consumers and creators.  TLRS librarians provide education to help them effectively locate, interrogate, apply, and ethically use information in their academic, professional, and personal lives to further the advancement of knowledge for our global community.
