Raamatukogu teadlaste teenistuses: Erialainfotalituse areng ja töötajad

From the Library to Science and ResearchersDevelopment and Staff Members of the Department of Subject Librarians This is an overview of the work of the Department of Subject Librarians at the UT Library and their cooperation with the university in supporting teaching and research.Among the main tasks of the Department of Subject Librarians have for years been databases-related advisory activities, the selection of packages of databases and digital journals for subscription and the organisation of test periods for the packages. Tasks related to university teaching include the mediation of information about ordering publications, organisation of the deposition of publications to university subunits and the lending of materials to the university teaching staff, and the preparation of reserved course materials packs. Teaching of information literacy to university and gymnasium students is an important area of work. Since 2014, the department has been developing open science-related services, focussing on teaching research data management and consulting about data management plans.Another important field of activities includes user training and the raising of information knowledge awareness. Staff members developed an e-course for teaching information literacy for students. In cooperation with university institutes, the teaching of information literacy has been integrated into several curricula. Staff members of the department also participate in the creation of the Estonian Subject Thesaurus

Infopädevus e-õppe teel

The era of information literacy began at the University of Tartu Library in 2006, when the subject librarians, who had previously worked at different library departments, came together to form the Department of Subject Librarians. Teaching information literacy became an important part of their tasks. It was decided to create a web-based information literacy course and to find ways to add it to different university curricula. Starting from 2007, the e-course „Fundamentals of Information Literacy” is held every autumn semester as a university-wide optional course for bachelor and Master’s students. During 15 years, 2845 students have passed the course, the aim of which is to introduce the quality information resources available through the library and freely accessible on the internet, and to teach practical knowledge and skills of searching information on the students’ speciality. The e-course „Introduction to Information Research” has been offered to doctoral students starting from 2008. The courses take place in the Moodle learning environment and provide links to learning materials, instructions and forums, where the students submit their assignments and get feedback.In 2009-2016, the e-course „Information Literacy or Why Google is not enough” was held for school students. The MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) „Information Literacy” was created in 2017; during five years, 2248 students passed the course. Starting from 2021, the course can be taken for a small participation fee. Based on the experience of conducting the MOOC, we redesigned the basic course of information literacy, where the achievement of learning outcomes is mostly checked with tests. This makes it possible to increase the number of students and to add the course as an optional or mandatory subject into the curricula of the fields that may want it

Teadusinfo otsing internetis

BeSt programmi toetusel loodud õpiobjekt tutvustab võimalusi vabast internetist teaduskirjanduse leidmiseks. Antakse lühidalt põhitõed otsingusõnade valimisest ja päringu koostamisest ning nende oskuste kasutamisest internetist otsingul. Veel saab teada, kuidas leida tasuta teadustöid otsides Google ja Google Scholariga, kuidas saada ligi digitaalsete arhiivide ja andmebaaside materjalidele, mis on Open Access ja kuidas see aitab kaasa teaduskirjanduse vabale kättesaadavusele

How to teach information literacy relevant to students: an online credit course model from the University of Tartu Library

To communicate the necessity of information literacy in the university and to draw attention to it as a possible subject, we created in 2006 a web-based general course model of information literacy. The course is based on the ALA standards and is now included in the university curriculum as a credit bearing optional elective course, giving 3 ECTS credit points. We relied on experiences described in professional literature: information literacy can be effectively taught in separate courses, and such courses should be offered by libraries as well. On the basis of the course, we have also created an advanced course for doctoral students, several specialized courses in information literacy integrated into subjects, and a nationwide course for gymnasium students
