Information Literacyold roots
Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it... - Samuel Johnson (1791)

Information Literacy
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants - Isaac Newton, 1676
other version from at leastthe 12th century
In Greek mythology the blind giant Orion carried his servant Cedalion on his shoulders.

SearchingSearch engines
not semanticincomplete - deep web (>90% of Internet - not indexed)
People are resourcesspecialist sites, email list-servers, other groups
Not all information is in soft formatOCR-ed material often error prone
Published sourcesSometimes inaccessibleSometimes expensiveAuthor archivesFind and contact authors
