High School to College Meeting at Union College

Join us on December 11, 2024 for a full day workshop focused on how the librarians at Union College teach research skills at all levels of the college experience. Our work with incoming students has highlighted a gap in the skills that students bring with them from high school when compared to our disciplinary colleagues’ expectations.

We’re hoping that seeing what we teach students at the college level will open up a conversation about how we, as a community of K12 and college-level librarians, can begin to bridge this skills gap.
