      The article analyzes the impact of federated search products on library instruction using the Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education. Federated research products, which are becoming more prevalent in academic libraries, are also known as metasearching, broadcast searching, or cross searching that allows users to simultaneously search multiple library databases, catalogs, and other collections via one common interface.
