Abstract
The article looks at the information literacy programs at universities and colleges and discusses the importance of the integration of information literacy to the teaching and learning process. Librarians at Butler University's College of Business Administration identified learning objectives for course instruction and planned library-instruction sessions. At the university of Auckland Business School, electronic information literacy instruction was integrated in a management course. At Pennsylvania State University, they used problem-based learning in their course-integrated library instruction. Trough information literacy programs, learning communities increase their academic achievement, retention, motivation, intellectual development, learning and community involvement.
