Abstract

DUQUESNE ALDERETE, Amílcar. Information literacy in the university polyclinics. Educ Med Super [online]. 2011, vol.25, n.2, pp.157-163. ISSN 0864-2141.

One concept that decisively influences over the learning process in the university polyclinics is the information literacy, which is the set of skills required by people to realize when information is needed and how to locate, assess and use it efficiently. It makes emphasis on the contents, the communication, the analysis, the search, the evaluation and the use of information. The literate people in information are those who have learned the way of getting knowledge. Attaining skilled and information literate students is rapidly becoming a fundamental objective for many counties. The new University Polyclinics do not ignore this reality.

Keywords : Information literacy; university polyclinics; information; information management; knowledge management.
