Moodling with Information Literacy

I was checking out some of the papers at the ALIA Access 2010 conference and enjoyed reading a paper written by a couple of librarians from Sydney Institute, TAFE NSW. The paper is called "Moodling along with Libraries - supporting online flexible delivery in TAFE NSW". The paper discusses the way that Librarians are collaborating with Faculties to create content that assists students with Information Literacy. It is quite an exciting time to be working in the Education sector as there are many fantastic tools to assist with content creation - that look professional and are easy to use. Moodle and Equella are used by TAFE NSW, and a number of Institutes have recently invested in LibGuides to create subject guides. The hype about LibGuides is large, so I'm looking forward to experimenting with them sometime soon.
