If ever there was a time to educate the community on how to access credible, authentic government information, now is that time. As a librarian working in an academic library, I typically assist students with locating sources of government information. However, after presenting online sessions to the general community in fall 2024 and spring 2025, on how to locate federal and North Carolina state sources of government information, the Coordinator from the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), a university-led and member-supported organization that provides lifelong learning opportunities for adults 50+, contacted me to see if I would be interested in teaching these same sessions in an in-person format to this community group. During my presentation, I'll discuss the format/content in which I taught these sessions, the interaction and feedback of those who enrolled in the course, and things I learned while presenting this as an in-person session for the first time.
