Information Literacy

Welcome to Information Literacy

The information literate student recognizes:

•     That new information and data is constantly being produced and that there is
always more to learn
•     That being information literate involves developing a learning habit so new
information is being actively sought all the time
•     That ideas and opportunities are created by investigating/seeking information
•     The scale of the world of published and unpublished information and data
