The Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education, published by the Association of College & Research Libraries in 2015, helps conceptualize information literacy into six frames or core concepts. These frames form a structure which helps students know when and what kind of information is needed, where and how to find that information, and how to responsibly and ethically utilize information once discovered.
|
The ACRL Information Literacy Frames are: -Authority is constructed and contextual -Information creation as a process -Information has value -Research as inquiry -Scholarship as conversation -Searching as strategic exploration |
