Information Illiteracy: Examining Our Assumptions
Green, Rosemary
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v36 n4 p313-319 Jul 2010
This paper explores the notion of information illiteracy in relation to doctoral students' information literacy activities. Findings from a qualitative study of the doctoral literature review process portray learners as competent, rather than information illiterate, even though they may not have received information literacy interventions.
