What does visiting a natural area or historic site have to do with libraries? The interpreters who present programs at these unique places "translate" their resources into engaging experiences that build lasting connections between the site and the visitor. Similarly, the underlying goal of library instruction is to create a supportive bridge connecting the student and their studies, while revealing how information literacy skills are relevant to both their work and personal life. This session examines how one librarian has used her experience leading interpretive programs to make one-shot sessions more memorable, relevant, and engaging for students.
