Why Information Literacy?

New Yorker Cartoon Bank
http://www.cartoonbank.com/page/home

Libraries & Librarians
Vital for research at all levels

•  Information experts
•  Access to resources
•  Ability to connect people & resources
•  Ability to connect information &
technology
•  On the front lines in the info search

Why?

Information literacy is a key
skill in every discipline and
profession. No exceptions.

Students are content creators


They need traditional & new skills!

Using new & traditional media!

To understand their need for
information!

To ﬁnd & evaluate reliable
information!

To draw conclusions & present
information!

Image: 'Spectrum and reflection'

To prepare for
post-secondary
education!
and

for the global
society &
economy they
will face !


And, because . . .

We limit students if we do not help
them develop and use information
literacy skills across the curriculum

Technology
•  Profoundly affects the way we work, collaborate,
communicate, and succeed
•  Changes how people work, play, learn, socialize,
and collaborate
•  Explosive growth of mobile devices and
applications will drive more change

Students
have
teachers/
LMS who

them

Through the research process

To reliable resources

The MILI 3 Rs
 Research Process
 Reliable Resources
 Responsible Use


Research
Improve the ability of students & teachers to conduct effective
research by using a process that includes 5 steps

•  Question
•  Gather & Evaluate information
•  Conclude
•  Communicate information & conclusion
•  Evaluate process & product


Reliable Resources "
Identify & use available, reliable resources

•  “Format agnostic”--the format of the
information is not the point
•  Evaluate all print, electronic, online, &
human resources for authenticity &
accuracy
•  Resource is appropriate in the context of
this research


Responsible Use!
Promote the understanding & practice of the responsible use of
information & technology

•  Advise & assist teachers in the creation of
plagiarism-proof assignments
•  Provide resources for teaching responsible
use including copyright, Creative
Commons, technology use


By developing research projects that
encourage 21st Century Learning
skills & promote Information
Literacy

Creating assignments that encourage
building knowledge, not just
repeating information


MILI will reduce the noise
