Abstract

Definition – the learner journey is here defined as the study, information and research skills that a student brings to university with them and develops throughout the course of their degree programme
Scope & methodology – research on academics’ perceptions, expectations and assumptions about the learner journey was conducted via semi-structured interview, in order to underpin a refreshed library teaching ‘menu’ at the University of Worcester
Results – consistencies and differences in approaches to levels of study, and a number of common themes, including student independence, transition, and technology were revealed
Outcomes – from the evidence base, the project yielded both tangible outputs (the teaching menu, a self-audit tool, a PGCert session) and less quantifiable ones, such as positioning Library Services as pedagogic partners and researchers
