There is a priced webinar offered by ACRL on 13 September 2018 at 2pm-3pm US Eastern time (which is 11-12.00 US Pacific time and 7pm-8pm UK time): Special Collections & Archives: Partners in Critical Information Literacy "Discover how to utilize primary sources from special collections and archives to teach critical information literacy. Explore primary source analysis as a critical teaching tool that is rooted in both critical consciousness-raising and postmodern archival theory. Example analyses will use foundational archival principles to guide learners through their work. Additionally, the presenters will highlight ways in which critical primary source analysis can be useful in addressing some of the common challenges to implementing critical pedagogical techniques." The presenters are Rebecca K. Miller (Head of Library Learning Services at Penn State University Libraries) and Julie Porterfield (who is Instruction & Outreach Archivist and WGSS Library Liaison at Penn State University Libraries). Costs are: ACRL member: $50; ALA member: $75; Nonmember: $90; Student: $40; Group*: $295. More information at http://www.ala.org/acrl/onlinelearning/partnersincritinfolit
