A partnership was formed by two academic engineering librarians and a librarian in an engineering firm to learn more about the information needs and skills necessary for their clients as they transition between the academic and work environment. Through a review of the literature and a preliminary survey of practicing engineers, it was found that more emphasis during information literacy training should be placed on finding gray literature and that, because of evolving information-seeking patterns, a strong focus should be placed on evaluating information.
