abstract

While there is abundant discussion in library literature on the information literacy needs of undergraduates, particularly incoming freshmen, fewer librarians have focused on the needs and skills of graduate students, perhaps due to the simple fact that the undergraduate population is much larger than that of graduate students. However, several changes in the educational landscape are driving the need for more comprehensive services for graduate students. ... This chapter will cover the academic landscape navigated by STEM graduate students, along with proposing a robust suite of services to graduate students that embed librarians and the library throughout their research life cycle.
