1. Collaboration, by its very nature, must develop, evolve, and respond to particular situations, realities, locations, and individuals. For this reason, this article cannot be a guide on how to collaborate. Instead, this article is a description of why meaningful collaboration is important not only to IL and composition but to various teaching and learning initiatives in universities and colleges.

15. We acknowledge that this collaboration is made possible by the small size of the composition course at the University of Windsor and also by our library's commitment to collaborative IL initiatives. We also acknowledge that a collaboration such as the one we describe would be difficult to achieve on a much larger scale; however, there are elements from our collaboration that could be adapted or modified to fit larger programs.
