The Public Library Association (PLA) and Google know that library staff are trusted facilitators and guides in boosting information literacy skills. With growing challenges rooted in misinformation, this role is only becoming more important. Building on a 2022 Super Searchers pilot with Public Libraries 2030 and Google, PLA is extending the Super Searchers training and toolkit<https://www.ala.org/pla/initiatives/informationliteracy/supersearchers> to help equip more busy library staff with tools to help patrons search more efficiently and critically engage with online information.



The free training teaches participants to use common frameworks to assess information quality online, to use and share major features of the Google Super Searchers suite of tools, and to integrate misinformation awareness into patron interactions.
