What is Talent Development?
The official story:
1. Established – 1968.
2. The mission -- recruit, support, & retain students of color & disadvantaged students from in-state.
3. The students -- high schools, and both community & faith based agencies.

Talent Development:Before the collaboration
[TD’s] connection to the library goes back to 1968
Taught by TD staff
Unaware that they could ask for instruction assistance.

TD & the Library:A connection is made
Scavenger hunts and other methods used.
It worked…but it wasn’t perfect.
1996 -- Sylvia Krause (Head of Reference) contacted Sharon about instruction.

TD & Library: 1998 - Present
We want the students to learn basic system literacy. To make the library a place that they’re comfortable walking through the doors. And [create] connections…to the staff.

Talent Development:Students – Summer, 2003
Everything was pretty much covered. I will come back to you if I need help.
Does a book have to returned where it’s checked out?
When did it become so difficult? Card catalogs are a lost art!!

TD & Library:Still revising the blueprint
Have the library sessions woven in more closely into our writing program over the summer.
Have the TD tutors sit in on the library sessions.
