In the summer of 2005, we worked with five Information Literacy Fellows* to revise this curriculum and develop joint learning goals and lessons, based on our conception of Writing Information Literacy.

Of a total of 770 citations (about 23 per paper), only 1% came from web sites. The vast majority of citations came from you guessed it journal articles or book chapters.
