Abstract

This column details a conversation between an early career education librarian and an international Ph.D. candidate from China who was studying information literacy as part of her Doctoral studies. The aim of this discussion was to explore and reflect on her experiences as an international graduate student and growing expert in the field of information literacy, as well as to report lessons learned and recommendations for academic librarians working with international student populations.
