English abstract

The web-based library tutorial described herein presents a conceptual overview of the general information environment while tailoring the content and examples to education-specific information resources. As more and more teacher education courses move to an online environment libraries are being challenged to deliver to distributed education students a comparable range of experiences as are offered to those attending campus-based classes. The goal of this project was to produce a web-based library instruction tutorial that covered all aspects of an education-specific classroom-based library instruction experience.
