Abstrakt: This report describes a pilot collaborative teaching experience between library and Spanish faculty members to meaningfully integrate critical information literacy (CIL) into a community-based course for advanced Spanish students. A key learning objective the two teaching methodologies share is for students to understand the social, political, economic, and cultural contexts of information and authorship in order to reframe notions of authority and students' own process of knowing--to reimagine epistemologies from local and global perspectives and from inside and outside the academy. The report defines communitybased learning and critical information literacy, identifies the concepts that inherently join them, describes the course's structure and assignments with a focus on the areas of closest collaboration between the authors, then describes the results with suggestions for improvement. CIL integration improved the course's overall success, and CIL learning outcomes were achieved and supported the course's general learning outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
