This study examines bibliographic instruction methods and aids currently being used in selected Canadian academic libraries. The project's objectives included identifying: the current state of bibliographic instruction; programs or special services offered for foreign students; changes or developments that have taken place in bibliographic instruction methodologies or use of instructional aids since 1976; and trends predicted during the next three years. The primary source of data was a questionnaire survey mailed to 38 libraries in two categories: universities and colleges, and community colleges. The sample was selected to represent both kinds of libraries and 29 questionnaires were returned for a 76% response rate. This six-part report comprises: (1) historical background, purpose of the study, and an explanation of project objectives, limitations, and definitions; (2) a review of the related literature; (3) a description of the research procedures, including study and instrument design and the surveyed population; (4) project findings in a number of areas, including bibliographic instruction programs offered, instructors, publicity, methods, aids, and future trends; (5) a comparison of this project's findings with those of a similar survey conducted by Sheila Laidlaw in 1977; and (6) project conclusions. Twenty-eight tables and a bibliography are provided. Appendices include the questionnaires for both the 1977 and the current study. (THC).
