Notes de l'éditeur
- Important to choose another university for ethical reasons Planned to investigate own practice and workplace – gave an outside lens
- Concern? Belief that IL concerns are shared across this institution, but no mechanisms in place for allowing this to be discovered and developed. If this true, would see a shift in role of academic librarians from teaching as an expert, to facilitating the embedding of IL in the curriculum, and seeing IL developed, via staff development.

- Exploration of the literature. What is information literacy? Traditionally based upon skills models. SCONUL, ACRL, ANCIL, ANZIL. Various critiques of these, including social construction approach (landscapes) (Lloyd) and the critical information literacy approach (Elmborg, Smith). Too academia-centric, not taking into account the backgrounds and previous experiences of those in HE.
