In December 2005 a 42-item survey was sent to all Spanish university libraries to determine the user training each provides and present a thorough and integrated summary. A total of 48 centres responded to detailed questions about the types of training offered, instructional materials, staff involvement, evaluation methods, and future user training needs and approaches. The results indicate that university libraries are immersed in a transition from traditional user training to efforts that are more related to information literacy and the emerging concept of the European university, beyond national borders.
