Qualtrics Survey | Qualtrics Experience Management

The University of Washington Information School is looking for six public libraries to collaborate on creating information literacy programs and resources for teens.

This project will develop (1) a program specifically designed for public library contexts, to engage teens in understanding the ways online information can spread misinformation; (2) a website with a fake social media feed for use in library instruction; (3) resources to help library workers in developing locally-tailored programming that draws on those examples.

This project is funded by IMLS and includes a stipend for participating libraries. We are in the process of identifying libraries potentially interested in participating in the project. Learn more about the project on our blog.

Interested?

Fill out this short form no later than November 8, 2024 for us to learn more about your library and the teens you serve.

You can review the questions offline by printing this page. You may be asked to participate in a 30 minute follow-up interview to learn more about your library and for you to answer any questions about the project.
