    Abstract:
    In 2016, the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) released the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (the Framework). The Framework replaces ACRL's Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, which had been in place since 2000. The departure of the Standards and the subsequent arrival of the Framework represents both a challenge and an opportunity for music librarians. How do we as a profession respond to the Framework, and how can we use it to work most effectively with music students and faculty? In this article, the author connects the ideas underlying the Framework with the concept of situated information literacy, outlining ways in which a situated approach to information literacy instruction enables music librarians to engage with disciplinary faculty, use our subject expertise to its fullest extent, and more readily grapple with changing national standards and guidelines.
