Organizational Development Ideal
The organizational learning environment will foster deeper – and ‘actionable’ - understanding of issues inherent in developing information literacy within various educational contexts.

Organizational Assumptions and Learning Priorities
Organizational conception of information is ‘real problem’ so ‘knowledge enabling’ experiences aim to:
Surface information conceptions and advance their complexity – e.g., understand ‘sources’ (textual, social, physical, and sensory) as more than ‘in need of’ metadata description (’control’)
Stimulate information sharing and reflective dialogue – e.g., activate learning experiences that produce appreciated benefits from exposure to diverse perspectives

Organizational Knowledge Creation Theories
Systemic ‘big picture’ thinking (Checkland/UK)
Social ‘information to knowledge’ exchange and creation processes (Nonaka/Japan)
Differentiated ‘information encounter’ (and usage outcomes) experiences (Bruce/Australia)

Shared Workplace and Classroom Learning Results
Intellectual—question assumptions, improve thinking, and deepen understanding.
Social—encourage cooperation and awareness, develop social identity, and foster belonging and community.
Personal—develop self-awareness and self-efficacy, encourage commitment, and enable self-expression.
Practical—develop teamwork skills, expand written and oral communication, and advance group proficiencies.

Emergent Workplace Information Conceptions
Information control paired with information usage
Information literacy aligned with disciplinary mastery
‘Meaning making’ occurs through social negotiation

Formative and Summative Learning Assessment
Continuous KWL reflection:
What do you know? What do you need to know? How do you want to learn it?
… informs Research Information Services & Education (RISE) forum, database, and education system design and content.

Participatory Design & Organizational Evaluation User generated, user implemented, user
interpreted research on library systems and services, including focus groups, usability studies, campus surveys, and stakeholder interviews
Qualitative, evidence-based, interactive ‘sense making’ dialogue that promotes learning through iterative problem identification and exploration

‘Master Teacher’ Leadership Principles
Leaders foster a learning environment conducive to enabling knowledge creation through reflective inquiry and information exchange.
They consistently demonstrate and encourage contextualizing systems thinking.
They encourage – and acknowledge – boundary crossing relationship building.
They practice explicit ‘relational information literacy’ in the workplace.

Sustaining Organizational Synergies
Illuminating ‘intersubjective’ dialogue and reflection (Lloyd)
Expanding boundaries of concern and influence
Continuing evidence-based information practice (Partridge & Hallam)
Evolving purposes, processes, and relationships

New Campus Learning and Teaching Roles
Creators of applied educational theory and producers of active learning experiences, which are information-resource based and information literacy-enabling ... that build upon (and extend) workplace learning experience outcomes.

Theoretical Foundation for Advancing Library Centrality Originating, exchanging, and exercising
individually held information to enable collective knowledge sharing and creation (Nonaka)
Valuing campus constituencies’ situated perspectives and establishing exchange relationships that support inquiry and build community (Checkland)
Applying expanded information finding, interpreting, and using conceptions for social learning through ‘meta-level’ reflection and dialogue (Bruce)
