Abstract: The article discusses a syllabus study conducted at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana that researched the amount of courses that required library use and which ones could potentially benefit from library instruction. Particular focus is given to the importance of teaching information literacy, the skills to recognize when information is needed and the means by which to locate and evaluate it, and curriculum-integrated instruction to maximize library use effectiveness. The study at Notre Dame looked at 144 syllabi and found that 62 required no library use while 55 required library materials for work other than assigned reading. Other factors considered in the article include course level, subject discipline, and use rates of library instruction services.
