| This study evaluated the efficacy and functionality of the new website for the Harold B. Lee Library at Brigham Young University. The website has the same look and use capabilities on a computer, tablet and smartphone and was assessed using focus groups, an online survey and usability studies of its patrons (i.e. undergraduate and graduate students and faculty). This study sought to determine what library services were being accessed through which devices by different patrons. The study sought to determine a baseline of patron use patterns to describe current website use and to compare changes in future patron website use patterns. The study also sought to determine the efficacy of using a variety of devices to access library services. This presentation reports on the procedures used to collect data regarding the functionality of the new website. It also describes patron use patterns as they accessed library services on a variety of devices. |

| Graduate students working with research data need data management skills. This poster will discuss the development of a one-credit disciplinary course to teach these skills, which are often learned by trial and error or passed on by peers. Top educational priorities identified and the teaching approaches, materials, and assessment strategies used will be shared. By sharing our experiences, both successes and failures, we hope to grow the community around this type of instruction. |

| The Bone Room provides students with an opportunity to collaborate, study, and work together to strengthen their knowledge in Anatomy and Physiology. Students have complete access to all of the resources available during library hours. Resources include: anatomical models, posters of each body system, and Anatomy TV which is an electronic resource which allows students the opportunity to view models in 3D with various interactive functions and features. This service is available at St. Louis Community College at the Forest Park campus. In order to provide these services and resources at other campuses, we have developed virtual tutoring for students at the Florissant Valley campus using Blackboard Collaborate. |

| The University of Chicago Library created Library Boot Camp, a flexible and fast-paced undergraduate orientation program. Inspired by speed dating, the program offers five “information stations” where students learn about key library services and resources. Every eight minutes, our librarian “drill sergeant” blows a whistle, directing students to the next station. Feedback about program has been overwhelmingly positive, and the program has increased student attendance and engagement. |

| In 2011, our three-librarian instruction team undertook a comprehensive review and redesign of our online tutorial, with the goals of improving its curricular foundation, its technological underpinnings, and its sustainability, culminating in the “Teach Yourself” suite of instructional modules. This virtual poster presents our impetus for creating a new tutorial platform, the functional requirements we identified, and the features of our new framework. We also touch on evaluation and plans for future improvement. |

| FYE students enroll in UNIV 100, which features an embedded IL component. Librarians redesigned the UNIV 100 information literacy assessment based on anticipated ACRL IL Frameworks to support university curricular goals. A flipped classroom format will be piloted using online modules to complement one-shot sessions. Built-in interactive activities will assess student mastery of specific IL learning outcomes. This IL assessment redesign has potential to be implemented and scalable in other student support programs. |

| At a large research university, librarians strive to make their instructional efforts sustainable and scalable. Information literacy modules, an introductory web course, and a series of videos were developed to meet the growing need for instruction with limited staff and resources. |
