Abstract:	This narrative describes collaboration among librarians, writing program coordinator, and professors on an information literacy task force. Their attempts to infuse the University's curriculum with information literacy are described. Authors define the term, explain its history with three professional organizations, and describe processes for engaging the faculty in grasping the range to ACRL [Association of College and Research Libraries] Standards, performance indicators, and outcomes. Authors show how mapping outcomes may be foundational for designing curriculum in response to the needs of learners and educators amidst constantly evolving systems.
