Jane Hammons has gifted us with a practical, well-researched plan to enable librarians to enter the development field with confidence. As a leader in faculty information literacy instruction development, her deep understanding of both librarian and faculty culture makes the prospect of librarians doing faculty development both possible and inviting. Well done!

In this much-needed book, Hammons offers a carefully crafted argument for information literacy through faculty development that is grounded in research and supported by clear and practical examples to help librarians put the advice into action.

In her new book, Jane Hammons enters the dialogue around the critique of one-shots with a sharp-eyed, deeply informed guide for what comes next. Part manifesto, part practical roadmap, this book reimagines information literacy through the lens of faculty development with clarity, nuance, and zero illusions of easy fixes. Teaching Information Literacy through Faculty Development examines the assumptions behind traditional library instruction and makes a compelling case for faculty development as a forward-looking, sustainable alternative. Hammons doesn't romanticize faculty development as a singular solution, but rather as a strategic approach that aligns with the evolving role of librarians as partners in teaching and learning. Drawing on scholarly literature, case studies, and her own professional experience, Hammons charts a flexible, practical path forward that is rooted in relationships, pedagogy, and lasting impact.

Whether you're a new librarian or a seasoned professional, this book delivers a versatile blueprint that is adaptable to pedagogical models such as the ACRL Framework, Informed Learning, Backward Design, or Decoding the Disciplines. At its core, the book offers a persuasive answer to a pressing question: What becomes of the librarian's instructional role as we move beyond the one-shot? Hammons' response centers around librarians as educational partners who prioritize relational work, curricular integration, and meaningful impact on student learning. Anyone using Hammons' guide will realize that shifting our focus to faculty development doesn't have to mean letting go of our educational mission, but it might just be how we finally achieve it.

If you want to know how you can bring information literacy education to more students at your university, this is the book for you. Teaching Information Literacy Through Faculty Development offers a thorough and thoughtful examination of librarians undertaking faculty development to integrate information literacy into curricula. With insightful institutional examples and a valuable list of considerations, the book provides both the "how" and the "why" for librarians interested in faculty development. Based on my many years of experience working with faculty to incorporate information literacy into university courses, I highly recommend this book as a guide for advancing and expanding information literacy in higher education.
