68. National Forum On Information Literacy A comprehensive source about information literacy including What is information literacy? Why it is important? How can I teach it? Who is doing it? And where can I read more? http://www.infolit.org/

Members Meetings International Alliance 2003 International Conference ... About the Forum Forum Overview The National Forum on Information Literacy was created in 1989 as a response to the recommendations of the American Library Association's Presidential Committee on Information Literacy. These education, library, and business leaders stated that no other change in American society has offered greater challenges than the emergence of the Information Age. Information is expanding at an unprecedented rate, and enormously rapid strides are being made in technology for storing, organizing, and accessing the ever-growing tidal wave of information. The combined effect of these factors is an increasingly fragmented information base, a large component of which are available only to people with money and/or acceptable institutional affiliations. In the recent past, the outcome of these challenges has been characterized as the "digital divide." Information Literacy is defined as the ability to know when there is a need for information, to be able to identify, locate, evaluate, and effectively use that information for the issue or problem at hand.

Colorado Department of Education Welcome to Literacy Connections! This is a new resource brought to you by the Colorado Department of Education’s Literacy Consortium. This site is intended to provide all audiences with information about CDE’s literacy initiatives, contacts, grant opportunities, conferences, and internal and external web links. Our Mission Statement: Every Colorado student will be a successful reader. What Is Literacy? Literacy is a complex phenomenon commonly defined as the ability to read and write, but made up of many subsets of skills including alphabetic skills, phonemic awareness, decoding and encoding skills. Social and cultural factors influence how literacy is developed and used. Central to the goal of literacy, however, is the ability to take meaning from print and to use print to communicate.
