There is a call for chapters for a book to be published by ACRL: Teaching Information Literacy in Political Science, Public Affairs, and International Studies (TILPSPAIS). The chapter proposals are due by 25 August 25 2023. Editors are Rachel Olsen and Kimberly MacVaugh.
"Liaison librarians to political science, public affairs, international studies, and related fields face special challenges in adapting traditional information literacy practices to the dynamic topics and unique resources of their disciplines. Gray literature, government data, policy documents, social media, and more must be addressed alongside conventional scholarly publications. The interdisciplinary nature of politics, policy, and international studies courses offers many opportunities for active and applied learning but also requires additional considerations for locating and evaluating information."
