In January 2016, ACRL replaced its Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education (Standards) with the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (Frame- work).2 While the Framework is intended for use by all types of higher education institutions, the often remedial reading, writing, and IL skills of the vulnerable community college student population may challenge community college librarians when integrating the more advanced and theoretical Framework into their instructional work.	cache/crl-17574.pdf	txt/crl-17574.txt
