Abstract

Abstract:Emerging fashion researchers often have their first experience with visual and tactile research in postsecondary school. Fashion librarians and educators must be able to assist students in adapting their perspective to include analyses of characteristics like color, silhouette, fabric, weave, and embellishment, in addition to familiarity with the fashion scholarship. However, translating visual and tactile cues into searchable vocabulary bridges can be difficult and exposes a gap in information literacy. In this article the author shares three information literacy exercises that librarians may combine with institution-specific resource instruction to guide students in developing a useful vocabulary for image- and object-based research and meeting their unique educational needs.

时尚学生的信息素养：将视觉和触觉线索转化为可搜索的关键词

摘要：新兴的时尚研究人员通常在中学后才有了视觉和触觉研究的第一次体验。时尚图书馆员和教育工作者必须能够帮助学生调整他们的视角，包括对颜色、轮廓、面料、编织和装饰等特征的分析，此外还要熟悉时尚学术。然而，将视觉和触觉线索转化为可搜索的词汇桥可能很困难，并暴露出信息素养的差距。在这篇文章中，作者分享了三个信息素养练习，图书馆员可以将其与特定机构的资源指导相结合，以指导学生开发有用的词汇，用于基于图像和对象的研究，并满足他们独特的教育需求。
