Davis-Kahl, a scholarly communications librarian at Illinois Wesleyan U., and Hensley, an instructional services librarian at the U. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, bring together librarians from universities in the US and Canada to consider how they can bridge the gap between information literacy and scholarly communication. In 17 essays, they address topics like open access, plagiarism, authors' rights, the social and economic factors of publishing, and scholarly publishing in terms of information literacy instruction in college. The essays describe the histories of the two areas, the ethical dimensions of increased access to knowledge, metadata mining, helping students bring together different elements of research, supporting international students in their understanding of scholarly communication and information literacy, promoting graduate student publishing, collaborating with extension faculty and researchers on scholarly communication issues, and educating faculty and administration about copyright issues.
