LITERACY
INFORMATION LITERACY• “To be information literate, a person must be able to
recognize when information is needed and have the
ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information. The information literate individuals are those who have learned how to learn” (ALA, 1998).
• They know how to learn because they know how knowledge is organized, know how to find information, and know how to use information in such a way that others can learn from them (Byerly/Brodie, 1999).
