“…Though until recently; they have been exposed very little Pre and post assessment study critical examination, these models have widespread acceptance among librarians and other educators (McNicol et al, 2014). Still, recent research showed preferences in ACRL framework for adopting in the higher education for a more scaffolded and embedded approach for the university (Albert et al, 2020;Atkinson, 2020;Davidson Squibb and Zanzucchi, 2020;Fite and Jackson, 2018;Gainey et al, 2019;Gunasekara and Gerts, 2017;Lehner-Quam and Pitts, 2019;Sample, 2020;Schwartz, 2018;Sharun, 2019).

Purpose The purpose of this study is to present how the library’s information literacy (IL) sessions and research support programmes can change students' perceptions towards their research practice. Design/methodology/approach To reach the aim of this study, the author carried out survey through the structured questionnaire before (pre-test) and after (post-test) the session of instructions. Then, the author compared the scores statistically using paired sample t-test to see the differences. Findings The findings and review suggested that the need for the continued development and implementation of IL and research support sessions should not be ignored. The students may be benefitted from a well-designed programme. This sort of training session improved learners' attitudes significantly towards research practice and behaviour. Originality/value IL and research support have not been addressed much in the country where the study took place. Though not new, however, these initiatives may make the educators rethink concerning their curriculum. Moreover, a collaborative effort between librarians and faculty members may result in an active driving force for effective learning.
