dc.description.abstractWe at Busitema University, Faculty of Engineering and Technology believe that information literacy is a required element of a literate engineer. Engineering graduates must have the essential information literacy competencies to succeed as independent, lifelong learners in their careers and in all aspects of their personal lives. The guideline1 on teaching information literacy to engineering students at Busitema University emphasize the collaborative nature of information literacy: librarians and lecturers working together on teaching research and information literacy skills to students. This integrated approach to teaching engineering courses at the Faculty of Engineering and Technology will be guided by this action plan for the next two years (2022 - 2024). Our desire to empower student engineers become literate engineers is articulated in a six-point strategy that put great emphasis on improving online teaching and learning experience through augmented and enhanced collaboration between librarians and lecturers for impactful IL programming. Developing the Literate Engineer action plan, Busitema University Library and the Faculty of Engineering and Technology is demonstrating its commitment to excellence in its IL programming. There is always room to develop, change and achieve a higher level of success. In this action plan, we build on what has been done over the past years and look towards our future progress.
