Information Literacy Project

Just FYI, I have added a section to this site listing suggested resources designed to foster literacy about information literacy. The resources (websites, books, and more, oh my…with annotations, of course) were compiled as part of a 2006 graduate school project. They remain germane, and, thus, I have included them on this site. If you have any questions, comments, updates, or revisions, feel free to contact me or to leave a comment on this post. I’ve also briefly explained the site content as follows:

How to use the information literacy site resources (in brief): Since this information literacy project was not originally designed in this site, I had to make some design decisions on how best to import it.

Basically, I chose to import the content so that you can always return to the main information literacy page by clicking on the Information Literacy box on the orange navigation bar that displays below the header on every page of this site. Clicking on the Information Literacy box will always return you to the main navigation page from which you have access to all the sections of the information literacy related site content.

The content is broken up into four main sections of information literacy related resources: resources for teacher-librarians, resources for classroom teachers, resources for library/classroom collaboration, and general information about information literacy and information literacy models. Resources listed include related books, websites, and organizations.
