The theme for this year’s ACRL conference is “Recasting the Narrative,” and in this era of rapid-fire disruption it’s hard to avoid thinking about how institutions we take for granted will have to transform themselves.

**Adaptive Learning Using Assessment**  
 Those of you lucky enough to see students for more than one-shot sessions are likely doing some assessment of student progress in your classes. Or maybe you’re embedded in a professor’s class where assessment of IL learning is allowed. Either way, consider guidance from a 2017 article by Johannes Peter, Nikolas Leichner, Anne-Kathrin Mayer, and Günter Kramplen, “[Making Information Literacy Instruction More Efficient by Providing Individual feedback](https://srhe.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03075079.2015.1079607?scroll=top&needAccess=true#.W-I5cvZFzIW)”
