Library Instruction and Information Literacy | University of Hawaii at Manoa Library

Library Instruction Mission Statement

The Library is dedicated to the promotion of scholarship and research by providing all members of the University community with a comprehensive program of instruction, including lectures, demonstrations, active-learning activities, WebCT modules, and more, tailored to meet individual and group needs at all levels. Our primary goal is the attainment of information literacy for all students, faculty, and staff members. 

The Library encourages collegiality and collaboration between Instructional faculty and Library Reference and Instruction faculty. Instructional faculty members are invited to work with library instruction staff in designing course-related assignments that include information literacy objectives. The Program incorporates a variety of teaching strategies and methodologies that reflect individual differences in learning level, style, and culture.
