“Information literacy empowers people in all walks of life to seek, evaluate, use and create information effectively to achieve their personal, social, occupational and educational goals. It is a basic human right in a digital world and promotes social inclusion in all nations.”
UNESCO (2005) Alexandria Proclamation (pdf)

Cardiff University Library’s Handbook for Information Literacy (4th edition) provides practical guidance and tips for librarians teaching information literacy.

The Handbook is currently being updated to reflect developments in digital learning and teaching and we will make it available here when it is ready.
