Information Literacy in Public Libraries – the lifelong learning agenda

At a recent event at the Mitchel Library, Glasgow I was asked about examples of public libraries offering information literacy courses.

At the begining of December 2009  John attended An Information Literacy Framework for Wales event  to share the project’s experience in Scotland. One of the speakers was Gareth Evans, Senior Manager – Libraries, Caerphilly County Borough Council and he has allowed us to share his presentation – Information Literacy – a public view and the accompanying documents:
