Information Trends“65% of children, ages 2-17 go on the Internet several times a week.”
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting Internet Study (April 2003)
“The amount of information available in the world doubles every two years.”
David Thornburg, Educational Futurist, CUE 1997.
It is estimated that the amount of information in the world will double every 72 hours by 2010.

What is Information Literacy?
Information literacy is the ability to identify an information need, to locate, evaluate, use, and communicate information in response to that need.
![Page 5: K-12 Information Literacy in the Digital Age Cynthia MacDonald (cynthia.macdonald@fresnolibrary.org)cynthia.macdonald@fresnolibrary.org Rob Darrow (robdarrow@cusd.com)robdarrow@cusd.com.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56649e0d5503460f94af6593/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Information Literacy is a Process
Must be internalized
Integrated throughout the curriculum
Reinforced throughout the learning community
“… leads to independent, ethical, lifelong learners who achieve personal satisfaction and who contribute to
society as a whole.” • Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning, 1998.

How is Information Literacy Different in the Digital Age?
Expanding accessibility to informationWorldwide institutions
Variety of formats
Library services Moving online
Students must possess skills to locate and use the “best” information
Print and digital
![Page 7: K-12 Information Literacy in the Digital Age Cynthia MacDonald (cynthia.macdonald@fresnolibrary.org)cynthia.macdonald@fresnolibrary.org Rob Darrow (robdarrow@cusd.com)robdarrow@cusd.com.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56649e0d5503460f94af6593/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A shared vision of an information literate society for the 21st century:
Collaboration is Key
Successful collaborations better serve our students and are critical to our current and future success.
Collaborations among school and public libraries lead to an information literate society.

Evaluation skills essentialStudents more comfortable searching than evaluating
Important Statistics:“51% students, ages 12-17, believe ‘most or all’ information on the Web can be trusted to be right.”

Exercise #6
Implementing Your Information Literacy Plan

Final Thought
“Students who become information literate possess a more complete approach to information gathering. They can identify their research actions and explain their choices. They are conscious of the process and can monitor their steps and learning as they proceed”.
• Corinne Laverty, “The challenge of information seeking: how children engage in library work” Feliciter (Canadian Library Assn.), issue #5, 2002
