Abstract

The third phase of LIDP (LIDP3), is an internal project at Huddersfield that commenced in 2014. LIDP3 will focus on making use of the data and insights generated from phases 1 and 2 to increase library usage among the groups identified as having the lowest use.

It is clear from the results from phases 1 and 2 that a ‘one-size-fits-all’, generic approach to information literacy is inadequate. Therefore, the Academic Services Team’s in-depth knowledge of each subject and student cohort has been used to identify the most appropriate interventions for each group - this is a logical progression from the data-driven approach of the first two phases.

If targeted successfully it is anticipated that LIDP3 could lead to a rise in use of library resources, which in turn could be a contributing factor to better student attainment and retention.
