LOCI, Librarians on Online Course Information, is the newest ACRL/NEC interest group. It was formed by Jo-Ann Michalak, Director of Tisch Library at Tufts University, and Mickey Zemon, Library Director at Emerson College, after a discussion of web-based course management software at the ACRL/CLS Directors Discussion Group at ALA Midwinter 2001. The purpose of LOCI is to serve as a forum for sharing information on how academic librarians are linking electronic resources with web-based course information software, assisting faculty in the use of these tools and promoting information literacy within this new teaching and learning environment.
