Many aspects of the school restructuring movement and library media programs relate directly to information literacy and its impact on student learning. The basic elements in an information literacy curriculum are: (1) defining the need for information; (2) initiating the search strategy; (3) locating the resources; (4) assessing and comprehending the information; (5) interpreting the information; (6) communicating the information; and (7) evaluating the product and the process.
