Language learning and library learning in a university setting are
closely related endeavors that intersect at various times and
locations, and with various teachers and learners. This book is an
examination of how these intersections are experienced by language
learners. Its aim is to explore the two types of learning to help
sustain and develop the learning in both areas. The Intersection of
Library Learning and Second-Language Learning: Theory and Practice
is aimed at practitioners, both librarians and language
instructors, and describes everyday scenarios which will resonate
with academic librarians and language instructors. It presents
practical experiences and accompanies them with a consideration of
the literature of both librarianship and language education. It
reviews and evaluates professional practices employed by working
librarians and language instructors in their dealings with
international students. Considerations of the intersections between
language learning and library learning are placed within a
theoretical framework of learner autonomy. This framework offers
librarians and language instructors methods and practices that
enable students to take control of their learning in the areas of
both language learning and library learning. A concluding chapter
offers ways to connect the framework of learner autonomy to
settings outside that of a university context.
