information literacy professional
#infolitpro Sheila Webber
Information School
University of Sheffield
June 2013
Aim
• To develop a set of profiles for the Information
Literacy Professional (ILP)
– Profiles for different sectors and developed in different
languages to suit local needs
• ILP = anyone who has IL-related activities as a key
and core part of his or her job. The actual job title
will vary.
Purposes
• Help people writing/revising job descriptions or
putting together a case for an IL professional
• Aid planning for Continuing Professional
Development (CPD)
• Help in the work of establishing the importance of IL
Process
• Identify relevant documents and other evidence
• Team leaders for different countries/ sectors
• Hold face to face and virtual workshops e.g. LILAC,
COLRIC, European Conference on Information
Literacy
• Use online tools to generate ideas, draft and refine
the profiles.
• Target for profile set is the IFLA Conference August
2014
End product for each profile
• Document outlining what the skills, knowledge and
attitudes of the ILP might be and what
education/CPD for the ILP could look like
• Plus richer evidence about what being an IL
Professional can mean & a dynamic online resource
as a focal point for further development
• Still deciding best way of publishing - for the
moment it’s the blog
What kinds of
evidence?
