Coalition for Networked Information (CNI)
Libraries and digital information resources can play a critical role in the education of today’s students. There are, however, some major disconnects in the ways that students are using information, technology, and learning spaces and the ways that libraries present their information, deliver services, and provide facilities. This session follows up on a chapter in a new EDUCAUSE e-book on Educating the Net Generation, and it will describe how libraries could rethink their access mechanisms to information resources, their services, and their use of physical space to better address the learning styles of Net Gen students. Participants will be encouraged to discuss and debate the issues presented.
