“…McCombs (2006: 92) noted that: 'No library catalog or indexing tool was ever adopted in such great numbers as Google (which has now become an active verb as in "Did you Google it?")'. A lighthearted corroboration was brought forward by Martin (2006: 100) as she noted a counterfeit but popular Bart Simpson cartoon. The frame showed Bart writing repeatedly on a blackboard: 'I will use Google before asking dumb questions'.…”

Affective responses toward library-and web-based research were measured in surveys administered before and after an eight-week, one-credit-hour, university course in information literacy. Affect refers to attitudinal and emotional responses as measured via Likert scale questions regarding: like-dislike, difficulty-ease, confidence-anxiety, and interest-boredom. Approximately 90 students participated. Affective responses to web-based research (WR) did not appreciably change and remained more positive than responses to librarybased research (LR). However, affect responses to LR increased positively by 9 percent for all students. The most notable LR affect increases among sub-groups were: (1) 13 percent among males and (2) 28 percent among the 21-24 age group. (Numbers are rounded.)

“…Melalui kegiatan diskusi di kelas saat pembelajaran pun dalam mencari jawaban seringkali mengakses search engine Google dibandingkan mencarinya pada buku-buku pelajaran (Martin, 2006;Sandberg et al, 2020). Pada saat guru menugaskan untuk menyusun makalah dengan tema tertentu mereka juga mencari di internet secara langsung tanpa memikirnya dan mengolahnya terlebih dahulu yaitu langsung click, copy, paste maka tugas tersebut selesai.…”

Students at SMP Negeri 1 Sumber possess digital media literacy skills. However, their knowledge and skills are limited to primary computer and internet fundamentals. This study aims to understand digital media literacy based on students' individual competencies at SMPN 1 Sumber in Cirebon District. The research employs a quantitative approach through a descriptive survey method. The results of this study indicate that the digital media literacy level of SMP Negeri 1 Sumber students is 85%. This percentage consists of three abilities: technical ability (81%), cognitive ability (88%), and communication ability (67%). Among these percentages, the lowest score is observed in the student's communication ability. This is because students lack the knowledge and skills related to content creation, whether informative or entertainment-based. However, the proportion for the other two indicators is high because students have knowledge and skills regarding media and its regulations. In conclusion, the digital media literacy of students at SMP Negeri 1 Sumber is high, suggesting they have a good grasp of digital media literacy.

“…These changes involve not just traditional aspects of the academic library, but ways in which the library markets and presents itself. For example, research shows that Millennials usually choose to search Google as their first source for information (Martin, 2006; OCLC, 2006). As they start arriving on campus we need to actively demonstrate that the library serves an important role and is more than just a warehouse of dusty books.…”

PurposeThis article aims to summarize recent outreach efforts at The Washington State University Libraries. Taking outreach beyond the traditional library liaison relationship produced unexpected partnerships across campus with such diverse groups as New Student Programs and Residence Life.Design/methodology/approachThe Library Instruction Department at Washington State University was looking for areas where expanded efforts would be most beneficial to the majority of its students. Connection was resumed with liaison areas, which had been previously established, to bring a focus to student needs. Offices centered on student life, such as Residence Life and New Student Programs, were the focal point of these efforts.FindingsWSU's Library Instruction Department was welcomed as a partner program most everywhere it went. Consequently new areas of outreach have been established where none had existed previously and the library's reputation has been boosted campus‐wide.Practical implicationsResults include a more visible library presence across campus as well as opportunities for future collaborative relationships that bring research, education and university life together. Discussion of various programs and activities provide details about the challenges of making these connections and the rewards in making new contacts that publicize library services in non‐traditional means.Originality/valueBecause so much is on the web, marketing the academic library in a personalized manner has become increasingly important on a large university campus. Establishing alternative marketing strategies geared towards the primary student audience will help build relationships across campus and consequently bring students through the doors.
