This presentation offers a brief general introduction to libraries in Sweden and looks in particular at two university libraries in the city of UmeƄ. It was presented at the 2006 NRIC (Natural Resources Information Council) conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. Spoken comments from the presentation are found in the notes section for each slide. Additional comments have been added to make the presentation clearer for those reading this rather than hearing it when it was presented.

The curriculum development and implementation process highlights several of the advantages of using the course-integrated model of instruction to develop a more comprehensive information literacy program.
