"To
be information literate, a person must be able to recognize
when information is needed and have the ability to locate,
evaluate, and use effectively the needed information."
"Information
literate people are those who have learned how to learn. They
know how to learn because they know how knowledge is organized,
how to find information, and how to use information in such
a way that others can learn from them. They are people prepared
for lifelong learning, because they can always find the information
needed for any task or decision at hand"
