Information Literacy Computer Literacy Library Instruction Users (Information) Older Adults School Libraries Academic Libraries Web Sites In order for patrons to make the wisest use of the library, they must be both computer and information-literate. Librarians are faced with the challenge of designing programs that fit the literacy needs of the community. Academic and school librarians may find that their users are mostly students who are familiar with computers, but need help with information-seeking skills. Of course, many learning institutions have students who are older or economically disadvantaged, so even academic librarians may encounter patrons who are unfamiliar with technology. It might seem that public libraries would have more senior citizens as patrons and therefore would have to concentrate more on technology literacy. But financially strapped schools might not be able to provide the research instruction that their students need, so the public library may have to step in to help these students sharpen their research skills. The author presents numerous online resources designed to assist school librarians in providing their students with necessary information literacy skills. (Contains 13 resources.) |
