Corona virus is causing anxiety for the community. Continuous reporting, rumors and the emergence of thousands of writings about corona on the internet add to the concern about the truth of the information content. Valid data and real information are needed to be a trusted source of knowledge. Information institutions becomes a bridge between the need for knowledge and the uncountable distribution of information. This paper aims to analyze the community's knowledge needs about COVID-19 and provide recommendations for activities that information agencies can undertake to meet needs. Patients with certain diseases, old age, and pregnant women need health knowledge according to the conditions of those who are considered to have a lower immune. Office workers, field workers, entrepreneurs, and students need knowledge of increased immunity, preventive measures and ways of treatment that are suitable for daily activities. Recommended activities that can be carried out by information institutions include: the data center can act as a valid data bank relating to the corona, the information center provides reliable information and the documentation center becomes document making agency. The library through the reference service provides reference knowledge about corona while the circulation service provides a collection of COVID-19.

“…As mentioned in the literature, links, although not always causal, have been examined between library usage and student outcomes such as attainment, recruitment, and retention (Haddow, 2013;Hubbard & Loos, 2013;Soria, Fransen, & Nackerud, 2013Stone & Ramsden, 2013). Gathering data, analyzing it, and presenting findings can demonstrate to academic faculty that collaborating with library staff is worthwhile and can contribute to student outcomes, thus creating library value (Oakleaf, 2010). As impact and value are so closely linked, this allows establishment of not only value for the Module but broader academic community library value (Bausman et al, 2014;Bonfield, 2014;Brown & Malenfant, 2012;Creaser & Spezi, 2012;Menchaca, 2014;Oakleaf, 2010;Pan et al, 2014;Tenopir, 2011).…”

“…Studies support measuring impact that aligns with university outcomes (Brown & Malenfant, 2012;Oakleaf, 2010;Pan et al, 2014). Library impact on institutional outcomes of "student success, student achievement, student learning, and student engagement" can be explored through evidence based practice (Oakleaf, 2010, p. 12).…”

“…"The Value of Academic Libraries: A Comprehensive Research Review and Report" (Oakleaf, 2010) summarizes the importance for academic libraries to demonstrate their value, particularly in light of budgetary restraint and competing stakeholder interests. This importance is also emphasised in other studies (Bausman, Ward, & Pell, 2014;Brown & Malenfant, 2012;Creaser & Spezi, 2012Gibson & Dixon, 2011;Tenopir, 2011).…”

AbstractObjectives -Literature supports the concept that embedding academic and information literacy support into first year university courses enables students to proceed more confidently with researching and writing their assignments, and thus contributes to student success in their course. A need was identified for academic and information literacy support for a cohort of first year business students as part of the development of online course content for Griffith Online, the institution's online study degree option. This led to a collaboration between information literacy librarians, learning skills advisers, educational designers, and academic course convenors to develop and implement online resources. This paper will present findings on the impact of these online resources. Methods 96(2006) Five Senses of Success framework, evidence was collected and combined from a variety of sources over semester 2, 2014, and semester 1, 2015 to assess the impact of the online resource. Inferred evidence was gathered from usage statistics (number of hits on the sites) and from performance measures (comparing student essay grade between those that did and did not use the resource). Solicited evidence was gathered from a survey of students, students in focus groups, and interviews with course lecturers, tutors and other stakeholders.Results -The inferred evidence showed a positive impact on the student success indicators of the sense of resourcefulness, capability, connection, purpose and identity. The solicited evidence suggests that students saw the online resource in a positive light and that staff were happy with the impact it had on students' work and learning. It is believed that the gathered evidence indicates the Module did achieve the impact objective of a positive impact on the contribution to student success for these first year business students.Conclusions -The evidence has shown that this resource contributed to student success, and that staff and student satisfaction with the resource contributed to increased confidence with student academic skills and information literacy in respect to their assignment task. Assessing the impact of the online resource on student success has helped to demonstrate the value of the library at Griffith University to the wider community. The four-pronged collaboration relationship required for this approach was fostered with stakeholders outside of the library.
