Abstract
Wang [1] developed a practical model for curriculum integration of IL in higher education as part of her PhD study. In the last 2 years, this model has been applied to curriculum integration in various faculties at the University of Auckland (New Zealand). A staff development programme on curriculum integration of IL for librarians was also developed based on this model. This paper will explain the model and outline how the model has been applied to curriculum integration in practice, as well as in the development of a staff development programme in the academic setting.
