that prompt students to reflect on their Information Literacy practices. When used thoughtfully, this kind of metacognitive assessment approach positions students as experts on their own learning, and holds promise for transferring skills and knowledge. Session
participants will have the opportunity to discuss some ways it could be useful in teaching, and critically reflect on its potential to empower IL learners and move us towards a more just and equitable curriculum.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F3864">This year LYRASIS is focusing on the challenges and opportunities created by Open Source Software (OSS). Supporting open infrastructure is a hot topic in
the library community. Much of the conversation focuses on the sustainability of open source software and how communities fund their work. The focus on software development and the costs associated with it largely ignores the intricacy and nuance of community
work. During this session, attendees will: Examine theories related open source software communities; identify methods for resourcing community work; learn how communities organize their work; and identify strategies for governing community work<o:p></o:p></span></p>
