ERIC Online Submission Acceptance

The 2009 Brick & Click Proceedings are available in ERIC.

Yet again this year we had great turn around time with our submission to ERIC.

Editor Connie Ury states in the introduction for the 2009 Proceedings: "This year’s proceedings are chock full of information that encourages us to use digital means to make sense of our environment as a whole—both the brick and the click elements. Some of the authors’ goals are to share ways they are helping both students and faculty hone their information literacy skills. Others are evaluating students’ and faculty skills in areas such as accessing RSS feeds, searching the Web, retrieving information from proprietary databases, interpreting and creating citations, and evaluating the quality of sources."

Enjoy!!
