This session will demonstrate how USC Sumter's Anderson Library recently developed informa- tion literacy and research skills program uses information technology available through the li- brary introduce students, faculty and patrons to the methods and ethics of information research, with an emphasis on analyzing and defining information needs and resources by presenting it in multiple formats. During the Spring 2005 semester we used Camtasia™ to record both image and voice for in- structional use outside the classroom. Our goal was to reach every student member of our cam- pus and educate them on the offerings available in the library. Selected faculty received a CD tailored to their specific needs in the library. We used previous bibliographic instruction records to select the initial group of educators for the CD system. The library intends to provide this type of resource for any faculty member based on their feedback and their needs.
