Abstract

This paper presents a case study of faculty-librarian collaboration in an online program over three years. Based on interviews with the faculty and the librarian, challenges are discussed and suggestions are made for best practices in faculty-librarian collaboration for initiating, implementing, assessing, and sustaining information literacy instruction for online students.
