“…This model emerged because the groups needed an efficient way to receive targeted information in a timely manner. They found that too much time was wasted as they explained their information needs repeatedly to whichever librarian was working on the reference desk (Berdish & Seeman, 2010).

The financial collapse prompted many MBA programs to implement reforms which include adding experiential learning programs among other changes. These reforms provide opportunities for librarians to introduce or increase information literacy components in the programs. The current state of MBA information literacy practices is discussed, with several initiatives highlighted and some new approaches suggested.
