Abstract

More than 5000 publications related to library user instruction and information literacy have been published and reviewed in the past thirty years. New developments in education and technology during the last two decades have affected user instruction and have led to the emergence of information literacy. Based on needs related to the rapid development of information technology and the evolving information society, librarians have begun teaching information skills to all types of users to ensure that they gain information fluency so they can become productive and effective information users both in the education environment and in the work environment. The number of publications related to user instruction and information literacy, like the field itself, show phenomenal growth during the past three decades as demonstrated by the fact that in 1973 twenty-eight publications were reviewed, and in 2002 more than 300 publications dealing with the topic of information literacy will be issued. It is noteworthy that in the last decade there has been a tremendous growth in publications related to information literacy globally. During the 1970s, publications indicate that user instruction activities were of concern primarily to librarians in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. At the present time, publications indicate a major concern with information literacy not only in the countries mentioned above but also in China, Germany, Mexico, Scandinavia, Singapore, South Africa, South America, Spain, and others. On an annual hasis, the majority of the publications have addressed information literacy in academic libraries (60 percent) followed by publications related to information literacy instruction in school media centers (20 percent).

Abstract

In the information age marked by the global highways and instant information handling sharing worldwide, all citizens must become knowledgeable about, and efficient in, handling information. People need training in how to organize, evaluate, and analyze the enormous array of information now available in both print and electronic formats. Information skills need to be taught and developed on all levels from elementary schools thorugh universities. Librarians worldwide are uniquely qualified through education, training, and experience to provide people with necessary information-handling skills on all levels. Using available data regarding information literacy programs on the international level, Rader proposes a course of action for the next decade

Abstract

Most countries are facing major challenges in educating students from kindergarten trough the university for productive lives in the information ages. Governments and business leaders are challenging educators to provide students with skills to live and work effectively in the information age. Cooperative ventures between teachers and librarians in the area of information literacy may provide a solution to these educational challenges. Changing teaching methodology to prepare students for life-long learning may be another solution. In this article, Rader defines various concepts. She offers suggestions and guidelines to help teacher-librarian collaborations affectively educate students for the twenty-first century
