Group activity
New updates
Good morning all!
I just wanted to thank you for your interest in the group, and encourage you to feel free to add papers of your own to it. You can add things that you think are generally interesting for IL peoples, or use it as a way of prodding yourself to start working on your own reading list (like me :) ). If you want an easy way to see just your own papers, you could add a tag - e.g. your username.
Feel free to comment or chat if you like too!

IL experts - do you know of anything published on levels of information literacy in corporate settings? Studies on the level of IL of graduates or PhDs? Or if anyone's working on getting across IL concepts in the workplace (rather than simple 'how-to-use' instruction)? Really curious to know!

Clare Aitken Wonderful, thanks Emma! I'll check out his work. And your point about selection/retention etc is valid - we have a project running here right now that is working on this challenge. We have found (in our informal talks) that most workplaces (including academic workplaces) have not tackled digital information management at an individual level in any ...

Sheila Webber I've got a tag on my blog "workplace", so you might want to scroll through the posts tagged with that (though sometimes the post will be about other sectors too e.g. if I'm listing articles one of which is workplace related) http://information-literacy.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/workplace I'm not sure about "levels" of IL though - except possibly...

Blimey O'Reilly, hello everyone! It's lovely to have you here : )
This is a bit of a quick and dirty way for me to manage my #ilread stuff (as opposed to all the other stuff I need to read, sigh). All I've done is copy across a subset of refs from my library and tagged them with 'libgoddess' so that you can see which ones are on my list. Please feel free to add your own entries, and tag them however you like to identify them - or of course tag some of mine if you want to read them too!
Ultimately I hope to blog some summaries of the entries I get around to reading (but don't hold your breath ;-) ).
