Sheila Webber, 2004
What: Definitions of information literacy
![Page 6: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
“Information literacy is the adoption of appropriate information behaviour to identify, through whatever channel or medium, information well fitted to information needs, leading to wise and ethical use of information in society.”
Johnston & Webber, 2003
![Page 7: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
"But what is information literacy and how does it differ from information skills? Is it just another name for something old hat, or is it a developmental concept that needs to be taught and supported through school and into FE/HE and work? I believe it’s the latter, and I don’t think many would disagree with me"
Barrett and Danks (2003)
![Page 8: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
"Information Literacy encompasses knowledge of one’s information concerns and needs, and the ability to identify, locate, evaluate, organize and effectively create, use and communicate information to address issues or problems at hand; it is a prerequisite for participating effectively in the Information Society, and is part of the basic human right of life long learning."
Information Literacy Meeting of Experts (2003)

Sheila Webber, 2004
When: Lifelong learning
![Page 10: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
"lifelong learning must cover learning from the pre-school age to that of post-retirement, including the entire spectrum of formal, non-formal and informal learning. Furthermore, lifelong learning must be understood as all learning activity undertaken throughout life, with the aim of improving knowledge, skills and competences within a personal, civic, social and/or employment-related perspective. Finally, the principles in this context should be: the individual as the subject of learning, highlighting the importance of an authentic equality of opportunities, and quality in learning."
Council of the European Union (2002)

Why: Information literacy achieving various goals
![Page 15: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
IL as …
• Helping people to deal more confidently with the world
• Giving people a competitive advantage in the workplace
• Fostering creativity
![Page 16: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
"According to the survey, 53% of corporate workers report they spend more than three hours a week searching for relevant information to perform their job functions. Forty-three percent of respondents indicate they spend two-three hours a week recreating information that already exists."
Econtent (2004)

Sheila Webber, 2004
Not just individuals…• Organisations need to embrace information literate
approach to become learning organisations practising knowledge management
• Governments need to become information literate to be able to respond to citizens' needs/rights for information & make informed policy decisions
• Educational institutions need to have management and infrastructure that supports information literacy in staff and students

Sheila Webber, 2004
Goals and outcomes for the Information Literate University
"I think it was a sort of kind of utopia where people knew [laughs] about internal information and links to external information that would avoid wasting time …" (ENGINEERING 10)
"Just more learning. It’s a simple as, better, better, fuller, uh, student learning experience that goes beyond the confines of the classroom and the university, and you know, better research, more informed research. (ENGLISH 16)
(quotes from academics from our Information Literacy project)
![Page 20: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
Goals and outcomes for the ILU
"almost like an ideal like an exchange of knowledge and experience and skills, um… and an university that is highly information literate would provide access to information and advice to a much larger constituency than just students [ ] one that enables those kinds of enriching process of where people interact in many, many unplanned and unlooked-for ways…" (ENGINEERING 16)

Sheila Webber, 2004
“The PAT’s work has repeatedly uncovered examples of waste and duplication because of poor ‘information about information’. Few policy makers and service
managers are aware of what is already available and from whom. This leads to constant ‘reinvention of the wheel’ as agencies collect information that already
exists, wasting the time of those who have to provide it. (p18)”

Who involved in learning & teaching? Family, friends, teachers, librarians…

Sheila Webber, 2004
"Programs (e.g., teen advisory) and other services should be developed that address the information needs of immigrant children and adults. Some examples include … bibliographic instruction that goes beyond use of the library for reading and school assignments, including coverage of specific information resources frequently used by ICMs [Immigrant Child Mediators], such as the phone book, mass media, and individuals …"
Chu (1999)

Marketing 09: Gathering information is vital, whether it means going down to the library or looking up something on the internet, or reading the paper, or talking to a colleague in the hall, all of it—it’s something you’ve always got to be doing.
(quotes from academics from our Information Literacy project)
![Page 28: Sheila Webber, 2004 Information literacy: the digital library and beyond Sheila Webber University of Sheffield, Department of Information Studies May 2004](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e4d5503460f94b43af5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Sheila Webber, 2004
Marketing 05: I use information literacy to help me to be a better searcher, I suppose. Or I try! [Laughs.] Ten years ago I would have had a pat answer with talking about going to the library and finding articles and using indexes to search abstracts and so on, but technology has changed things so much that now the library almost isn’t part of my vocabulary. I don’t remember the last time I stepped inside a library here. That’s an awful thing to say, isn’t it? (SB: You're not alone.) Well, everything can be sent to me now. Everything is so collaborative, you know. I find myself using e-mail and communicating with colleagues that way. It’s so easy to talk to people all around the world and I’ve been in a number of different places so I’ve got contacts all around the world. So I find myself becoming an e-mail guru. My latest conquest is the discussion board and I’ve begun to make myself a nuisance on those as well.

Political inhibitors• Why would a nation want an information literate
population?– Criticism, spotting mistakes, claiming rights…
• Requires education, changes in attitude - not a quick fix
• Technology – enabler and inhibitor: “e” can be a let-out
• Those who take Wisdom conception of IL seriously take risks

Sheila Webber, 2004
Challenges for librarians• Pressure to provide quantitative evidence that IL
has "impact"• Librarians' urges to list, benchmark and quibble
about terminology• More assertive groups challenging our knowledge
and expertise• Exploiting the "e" agenda without being its victim• Tendency to narrow the agenda to traditional
areas - seeking, gathering, selecting

Sheila Webber, 2004
• "SB: how might you envision an information literate university? • ENGL18: Hmm. [Laughs.]• SB: What might that mean to you?• ENGL18: Well, it would have to call its library a library, which is
my pet bugbear—ours is called the learning centre, but we call it the mock-learning centre. It would have to know, it would have to do various things that ours doesn’t, I am sorry to say, because I mean, although they try to be very helpful, they do have the bad habit of throwing out anything they think is old, and we wage this constant battle that in English old books are often really quite good books. It would know that kind of thing, we wouldn’t always have to be fighting for that. (ENGLISH 18)

Sheila Webber, 2004
"Libraries are a good answer to many of the challenges in the Information Society, including the promotion of information literacy. The demand for libraries' expertise in modern society is quite clear. What is still unclear to many decision-makers is the wide range of functions that libraries can fulfil if they are asked to do so and supplied with adequate resources. For this reason libraries must continue to draw attention to their own role and opportunities in different connections, with perseverance and courage!"
Ryynänen (2003)

Sheila Webber, 2004
Librarians…• Should be more information literate than anyone
else (inc. searching Google better) - a taken-for-granted staff development area?
• Role emphasis depending on library type? (nothing new!) - educator, broker, consultant, taxonomist, searcher, knowledge manager ….
• Role tensions e.g. educator/consultant vs. service role

Librarians…• Increasing benefit in differentiating library from
librarian - librarians as individual web personalities
• People like librarians! Let's exploit this!

Librarians …
• Lobbying for 2-way information literacy - supporting & leading citizens

"Phenomenography is the empirical study of the differing ways in which people
experience, perceive, apprehend, understand, conceptualise various
phenomena in and aspects of the world around us.”
Marton (1994)
