Abstract

LICEA DE ARENAS, Judith; GOMEZ HERNANDEZ, José Antonio  and  VALLES VALENZUELA, Javier. More on information literacy. ACIMED [online]. 2009, vol.20, n.6, pp.216-227. ISSN 1024-9435.

The search for incentives to promote the use of information resources, their identification, evaluation, understanding and usage amongst library users and non-users is not new. However, the expression information literacy is relatively new and quite common nowadays because of the Internet and the accessibility to intranets and extranets. In this context librarians have to exert good practices in order to contribute to the elimination of teaching activities based on the chalk and the blackboard. If information literacy means the education of students for a better life, any action should be focused on the development of information competencies including other implicit literacies in order to abandon traditional teaching methods to place the Web at the center of the teaching-learning process.

Keywords : Information literacy; digital literacy; México.
