Abstract
This column proposes a new approach to teaching information literacy in which librarians work with faculty members to find examples of “fake news” in their discipline. This is an efficient method for teaching information literacy and creates stronger professional relationships between faculty and liaison librarians.

Summary
This column proposes a new approach to teaching information literacy in which librarians work with faculty members to find examples of “fake news” in their discipline. Librarians often teach students to detect fake news, which is a skill transferable to all disciplines. I propose that liaison librarians work with faculty members to make information literacy a classroom priority by using discipline-specific examples.
