Information Literacy is…

The Current Reality:Many Tech Savvy (& non-tech savvy) Students
read less (print)
write less (with pen and paper)
don’t know about the wide variety of information choices available to them (Google-it)
don’t know how to search bibliographic or full-text databases effectively
don’t know how to evaluate information
![Page 8: HU CETLA ILSI May 2009](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5549713cb4c905dd558b53fe/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Current IL initiatives (library)
Suggest UG Freshman complete TILT quiz
Provide INFOLit sessions (45min-3hr)
Tend to promote big box databases e.g. EBSCO
Sessions & Reference Desk exchanges focus on when and where to access information
![Page 9: HU CETLA ILSI May 2009](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5549713cb4c905dd558b53fe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Future IL initiatives !?!
Collaborate with faculty
Incorporate INFOLit session(s) into the syllabus
Move beyond big-box databases -- consider having multiple INFOLit sessions (f2f & virtual)
Assess effectiveness via class assignments e.g. annotated bibliography
