Abstract

Qualitative analysis was used to prepare a full picture of the teaching strategies and library research experiences of English 10 students, teachers, and reference librarians over a four-month period for the 2nd Semester, Academic Year 2010-2011 in the University of the Philippines [UP], Diliman. This study provides information that can be used to assist academic librarians when preparing to teach library research instruction and to assist academic libraries in redesigning and developing library research instruction activities for preparing librarians to teach undergraduates. The Library Research Instruction Program for English 10 (LRIE) that serves as the core of the work provide an instructional module that can be used by librarians for diversifying their instructional delivery with engaging learning tasks.
