34increased stu<strong>de</strong>nt information literacy skills and confi<strong>de</strong>nce along with an unexpected benefit ofgreater collaboration between librarians and the faculty. 6At the University of Oklahoma a science librarian and a microbiology faculty member collaboratedto incorporate information literacy into the course curriculum of an upper-division geomicrobiologycourse. The course was consi<strong>de</strong>red i<strong>de</strong>al for integrating an information literacy program because itrequired stu<strong>de</strong>nts to use information literacy skills to find, evaluate, and present information r<strong>el</strong>atedto a refereed journal article.
