“In a complex and rapidly changing environment, higher education must help students to become information literate. Information literacy enables students to recognize the value of information and use it to make informed choices in their personal, professional and academic lives.
An information literate student effectively accesses, evaluates, organizes, synthesizes and applies infor-mation from a variety of sources and formats in a variety of contexts.
Information literacy requires an ongoing involvement in learning and in evaluating information so that life-long learning is possible."
