  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>In 1981, James Rice proposed that there are three levels of library instruction: library orientation, library instruction, and bibliographic instruction.

In Rice's model, the second level provides a more extensive explanation of specific library materials and the third is the offering of formal courses in bibliography.</jats:p>
