This paper takes a look at the methods and technologies librarians can adopt to effectively teach research skills in an environment of exponentially rising research output, increased use of mobile devices, and less available time for focused research. We outline some of the most pressing challenges for librarians teaching research skills today, and present an overview of tools and technologies emerging to solve these problems.
