Reference: “The Rub”
The Librarian The Patron
“The Rub”• what we understand about one another
• what we misunderstand about one another
• what we learn from one another
There’s an information literacy action going on here as we learn what we NEED to know about one another in order to learn what the answer is to the question, based on how life experience informs our understandings.
Conceptual Framework
• figured worlds via Bartlett & Holland, 2002
• literacy artefacts (“the rub”) via Brandt & Clinton, 2002
• literacy events (Heath, 1986)
