Abstract:	We often assume first-year composition (FYC) involves outside research and that information literacy (IL) is a necessary component of a college education. Yet scholarship routinely shows that students struggle with college-level research, writing instructors struggle to teach it, and librarians struggle to connect with curriculum and students. What can be donel This article reports on a semesterlong controlled study measuring the effect embedded librarianship had on FYC students' basic IL skills, library attitudes, and source synthesis. Across three measures, embedded librarianship jailed to demonstrate significant improvement in comparison to the controls. Our results provide further evidence that one-shot sessions are insufficient means of reaching IL objectives set by professional organizations. We conclude by overviewing four possible alternative approaches to structuring information literacy education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
