Abstract
Librarians embed themselves virtually and physically into courses to provide information literacy instruction. The COVID-19 pandemic had librarians swiftly shift their instruction practices and outreach to patrons, learning and using new technologies and teaching techniques. The goals of this chapter are to understand what embedded librarianship is and how it affects information literacy instruction, explore what instructional services an embedded librarian provided before the COVID-19 pandemic, describe adjustments to information literacy instruction as the classroom shifted to remote/hybrid format, and outline strategies to successfully deliver embedded information literacy instruction in the future.
