Library Learning Services (LLS) empowers learners and educators by fostering foundational and transformative learning experiences that are inclusive, accessible, and equitable. We equip scholars to critically engage with information and apply it meaningfully throughout their academic journeys and beyond. LLS accomplishes this by promoting information literacy, championing open educational practices, advocating for accessibility, and designing programming that supports lifelong learning and broad access to knowledge.

- Multi-modal foundational information literacy instruction

- Operation and oversight of the Search Bar
