Abstract

This book, aimed at an international audience, provides an overview of information literacy (IL) in practice; what it is, why it's become so important in the library profession and demonstrates how librarians can cultivate a better understanding of IL in their own organisations. It uses the 'Cookbook' theme throughout to provide a more informal approach, which will appeal to practitioners, and also reflects the need to provide guidance in the form of recipes, tips for success, regional variations, and possible substitutions if ingredients aren't available. This approach makes it easy to read and highly valuable for the busy information professional. It includes an overview of information literacy in higher education, the schools sector, public libraries, the health service and the commercial sector. It also includes contributions from international authors. Key Features: 1. Highly readable for busy information professionals 2. Contains advice, case studies and examples of good practice particularly useful for practitioners 3. Relevant to librarians from all sectors 4.Suitable for an international audience The Editors: Dr Jane Secker is Learning Technology Librarian at the Centre for Learning Technology, based at the London School of Economics.
She is Chair of the Heron User Group and Association of Information Professionals in the Social Sciences (ALISS). She is the Conference Officer for CILIP Information Literacy Group and a founder member of the Librarians' Information Literacy Annual Conference (LILAC).

Rez. in: Mitt VÖB 61(2008) H.1, S.82-87 (M. Hütte): "Kochen liegt im Trend. Immer noch? Immer wieder. Johann Lafer, Tim Mälzer und Sarah Wiener beherrschen das Fernsehprogramm, ihre Bücher die Bestsellerlisten. Aber was hat Kochen mit der Vermittlung von lnformationskompetenz' zu tun? Der Koch buchstil des vorliegenden Werkes wurde von den Herausgeberinnen als Analogie gewählt. Kochbücher zeigen neue Wege auf, wie man traditionelle Gerichte aufpeppen oder Zutaten aus dem Vorratsschrank sinnvoll verarbeiten kann. Den Schritt-für-Schritt-Anweisungen in Kochbüchern können Anfänger folgen, genauso bieten sie aber auch Anregungen zu Eigenkreationen für den erfahrenen Koch. Entsprechend soll The information literacy cookbook als Anregung und Hilfe von Praktikern für Praktiker im BID-Bereich Verwendung finden. Der Sammelband richtet sich sowohl an erfahrene Vermittler von Informationskompetenz als auch an Neulinge auf dem Gebiet. Jedes Kapitel widmet sich dabei einer anderen Sparte des Bibliothekswesens. Die Köche, pardon Autoren, der einzelnen Beiträge sind innerhalb des englischen BID-Bereichs in öffentlichen Einrichtungen oder der Privatwirtschaft tätig und bringen praktische Erfahrungen auf dem Gebiet der Vermittlung von Informationskompetenz mit. ...
Der vorliegende Sammelband bietet einen aktuellen und umfassenden Überblick über die Aktivitäten bei der Vermittlung von Informationskompetenz in britischen Bibliotheken. Mit dem Titel wird die Erwartung erweckt, das Buch zeige Handlungsempfehlungen auf. Leider wird der praxisbezogene Ansatz nicht von allen Autoren gleichermaßen verfolgt, so dass einige Aufsätze eher zum spartenbezogenen Fortschrittsbericht geraten sind. Ein komplettes Kurs-Design wird in keinem der Kapitel geboten - dies ist aber auch nicht Anliegen des Buchs. Die Übertragbarkeit der Konzepte auf den deutschen Sprachraum ist begrenzt. Zu unterschiedlich sind die Rahmenbedingungen im Bibliothekswesen selbst, aber auch im Ausbildungssystem und den Förderprogrammen. Dennoch bietet das vorliegende Werk interessante Einblicke in die - gegenüber Österreich und Deutschland stark fortgeschrittene - Praxis der Vermittlung von Informationskompetenz im britischen Bibliothekswesen sowie einige nützliche Tipps und Hinweise für Gestaltung eigener Lernangebote. So ist The Information Literacy Cookbook für den deutschsprachigen Raum nur teilweise ein Kochbuch, i.S. einer Handlungsempfehlung für die Vermittlung von lnformationskompetenz, als vielmehr eine Studie über die britischen Essgewohnheiten. Aber auch auf diesem Sektor hat sich ja nicht zuletzt durch Jamie Oliver einiges getan, so dass hier diverse Anregungen geboten werden, die zum Ausprobieren einladen. Und bekanntermaßen kommt der Appetit ja beim Essen."

Rez. in: JASIST 58(2007) no.3, S.456-457 (D. Cook): "In February 2006, the Educational Testing Service (ETS) announced the release of its brand new core academic assessment of its Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Literacy Assessment. The core assessment is designed to assess the information literacy of high school students transitioning to higher education. Many of us already know ETS for some of its other assessment tools like the SAT and GRE. But ETS's latest test comes on the heels of its 2005 release of an advanced level of its ICT Literacy Assessment for college students progressing to their junior and senior year of undergraduate studies. Neither test, ETS insists, is designed to be an entrance examination. Rather, they are packaged and promoted as diagnostic assessments. We are in the grips of the Information Age where information literacy is a prized skill. Knowledge is power. However, information literacy is not merely creating flawless documents or slick PowerPoint presentations on a home PC. It is more than being able to send photos and text messages via cell phone. Instead, information literacy is gauged by one's ability to skillfully seek, access, and retrieve valid information from credible and reliable sources and using that information appropriately. It involves strong online search strategies and advanced critical thinking skills. And, although it is not clear whether they seized the opportunity or inherited it by default, librarians are in the vanguard of teaching information literacy to the next generation of would-be power brokers.
As for the value of reflecting on their teaching performance, the authors report the not-so-startling denouement that while it is easy to identify and define malpractice and to commit to changing performance errors, it is often difficult to actually implement those improvements. Essentially, what is first learned is best learned and what is most used is best used. In the end, however, the authors rightfully call for further study to be conducted by themselves and others. ETS's core ICT Literacy Assessment is not currently a mandatory college entrance examination. Neither is the advanced ICT Literacy Assessment a mandatory examination for promotion to upper level undergraduate studies. But it would be naïve not to expect some enterprising institutions of higher education to at least consider making them so in the very near future. Consequently, librarians of all stripes (public. academic, school, or others) would do well to read and study Stimulated Recall and Mental Models if they are truly committed to leading the charge on advancing information literacy in the Information Age. In this book are some valuable how-tos for instructing patrons on searching electronic databases. And some of those same principles could be applicable to other areas of information literacy instruction."

Inhaltsbeschreibung Die verschiedenen Initiativen zum Open Access führen zu zwei Systemen, dem so genannten »grünen Weg«, der bereits in gedruckter Form veröffentlichte Publikationen ins Internet stellt, und dem »goldenen Weg«, bei dem die Volltextspeicherung die einzige oder jedenfalls die vorrangige Form darstellt. Die Internationalisierung des Open Access erfolgte auf drei Konferenzen, die 2001 in Budapest, 2003 in Bethesda und im gleichen Jahr in Berlin stattfanden. Diese Volltextspeicherung war ursprünglich auf die naturwissenschaftlich-technischen Disziplinen konzentriert. Doch treten in zunehmendem Maße auch die Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften dem Prinzip bei. Dabei entstehen natürlich sehr differenzierende Aspekte, zum Beispiel für die Bibliotheken - etwa der Erwerb gedruckter Zeitschriften, Langzeitarchivierung von Interneteintragungen, für den Buchhandel wie für die Autoren - etwa das Urheberrecht, aber auch dort das ökonomische Interesse, wie der Plan des Börsenvereins des Deutschen Buchhandels zu einer eigenen Volltextspeicherung zeigt, dem die Deutsche UNESCO-Kommission eine Ergänzung zum vorliegenden Text nachsandte. Open Access hat mittlerweile ein so weites Interesse gefunden, dass das Auswärtige Amt zusammen mit der Deutschen UNESCO-Kommission 2006 zu einer Konferenz einlud, über deren Ergebnisse die Deutsche UNESCO-Kommission dieses Handbuch veröffentlicht hat, das neben einer definitorischen und einer historischen Einleitung (Norbert Lossau S.18-22 und Peter Schirmbacher S. 22-25) in vier weiteren Kapiteln die Möglichkeiten und Probleme darstellt. Im zweiten Kapitel werden drei verschiedene Modelle vorgestellt: Open-Access-Repositories am Berliner Beispiel des edoc-Servers (Susanne Dobratz S. 28-32), Open-Access-Journale am Beispiel des New Journal of Physics (Eberhard Bodenschatz S.33-36) und ein Verlagsmodell (Springer Open Choice) von Jan Velterop (S. 37-40). Das dritte Kapitel ist den Formen der Realisierung gewidmet, z. B. der Finanzierung (Stefan Gradmann S.42-45), des Urheberrechts (Karl-Nikolaus Peifer S.46-59), der Qualitätssicherung (Eberhard Bodenschatz und Ulrich Pöschl S.50-55), der Langzeitarchivierung (Ute Schwens und Reinhard Altenhöner S. 50-58), der Struktur der Wissenschaftskommunikation (Hans Pfeiffenberger S.59-62), der Datenverarbeitung (Wolfram Horst-mann S. 65) sowie der Akzeptanz (Johannes Fournier S. 66-70).
