Information Literacy and Librarians Experiences with Teaching Grey Literature to Medical Students and Healthcare Practitioners Yongtao Lin, Tom Baker Cancer Centre, University of Calgary, CANADA Marcus Vaska, Health Sciences Library, University of Calgary, CANADA

Lin & Vaska, December 8, What We Have Discovered & What We Will Discuss The Value of Information Literacy The Impact of Grey Literature on Information Literacy Information Literacy in a Medical Context Grey Literature in the Health Sciences Teaching Grey Literature Using Problem- based Learning (PBL)

Lin & Vaska, December 8, The Value of Information Literacy Not having the information you need when you need it leaves you wanting. Not knowing where to look for that information leaves you powerless. In a society where information is king, none of us can afford that. (Lois Horrowitz, 2007) The Information Literate Individual: one who is able to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information (Webber and Johnston, 2000, p. 382) Our goal: allow the user to take control of his/her own learning

Lin & Vaska, December 8, The Impact of Grey Literature on Information Literacy Grey literature must coincide with published material when conducting research, particularly systematic reviews IMPACT: limit bias Learners learn more when searching for grey literature! IMPACT: use critical thinking to apply and assess what is retrieved the unsung hero, the foot soldier, the foundation of the building (Moya Mason, 2008) IMPACT: Our goal as information professionals is to supply our clients with all of the skills necessary to experiment with various search tools and critically analyze what they have found

Lin & Vaska, December 8, The Grey Literature Explosion: Information Literacy and Technology Previously hidden documents can be more easily retrieved; instantaneous access to information in both the physical and virtual world There is always a purpose to searching; grey literature is another avenue to make a search more effective

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Information Literacy in a Medical Context 1989: Information literacy recognized in a medical setting Collaboration between information professionals and faculty members is key The discerning consumer:

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Grey Literature in the Health Sciences As a primary source of information, grey literature was cited in the medical journals that provided reliable data on research in progress. (Alberani, et. al., 1990) Technical reports prevailed over other types of grey literature. Expert searching in public health requires the ability to identify and search for resources beyond the electronically available published literature. (Alpi, 2005)

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Grey Literature in the Health Sciences (Continued) Inclusion of grey literature in meta analyses Grey literature and systematic reviews Roles of Health Science librarians in locating, retrieving, organizing and teaching grey literature.

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Teaching Grey Literature Some of the valuable search strategies we incorporate in our teaching sessions include: Multiple medical databases Citation index searches Research registries Journal hand searches Contact with organizations and associations Presentation abstracts and conference proceedings Internet searches

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Using PBL in Teaching Grey Literature Outcomes of Problem-based learning: Capability to think critically Ability to find, evaluate and use resources Ability to work collaboratively in teams Likelihood of applying to real life Development of lifelong learning skills Information Literacy Standards: Determine the extent of information needed Access the needed information Evaluate information and its sources critically Incorporate information into ones knowledge base Use information effectively Understand other issues relating to the use of information

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Using PBL in Teaching Grey Literature (Continued) The process of applying PBL towards a one shot information literacy instruction session: Lesson planning with well-defined learning goals Problem development to engage in discussions and build connections to previously learned concepts and material Schedule keeping Team creating in PBL Role changing from a lecturer to facilitator and coordinator

Lin & Vaska, December 8, Rewarding Experience in Using PBL in Teaching Grey Literature Gain insight into the structure of our end users understanding of grey literature Provide the experience in learning a topic on ones own and applying it to real-world situations
