Determining the relationship between information literacy and digital literacy is essential before revision of the ACRL Standards can proceed.  \nCordell, Information Literacy and Digital Literacy Communications in Information Literacy 7(2), 2013  \nINTRODUCTION  \nEvery public services librarian knows intuitively that there is a close relationship between information literacy and digital literacy. When a librarian helps a patron search for articles in a database, there is an interplay between information literacy (which database to search, which terms to use, which limiters to employ, how to evaluate the articles in the results, how to use the information found effectively and ethically, etc.) and digital literacy (how to navigate the library web site, how to get to a search page or find the advanced search page, how to find the help files, how to save or export the citations and full text, how to set up an account in a social media site, how to upload files to that site, how to comment on others’ postings, etc.) . The exact distinction between information literacy and digital literacy has not been determined, but we know they are related and suspect that they are not the same thing.  \nFor years academic institutions required a level of computer literacy for their undergraduate students, a requirement that might be addressed by one department for the entire campus or by individual schools or colleges for their own students and in compliance with agreed-upon outcomes. These computer literacy courses might require students to create and manage files; use database, spreadsheet, and wordprocessing software; and enter or manipulate data in various ways. These courses generally focused on the skills needed to use particular applications for the coursework required in the students’programs of study.  \nOver time, educators saw value in adding social networking sites, wikis, multimedia sites and other similar resources to their curricula, and they began to incorporate  \nsites like Facebook, Google Docs, and YouTube into their syllabi. These educators didn’t want to teach these resources, but they had to do so in the context of the content lessons they were creating. They wanted to create new learning environments, but students needed to be able to navigate within and contribute to those environments. The skills these educators needed their students to use were not necessarily (but they could be) skills they were using outside of academia. Students might already have the requisite skills, or they might not.  \nLibrarians involved in research instruction (by any name) understand that students need to be able to create and store folders and files on a computer or tablet, on campus shared drives or courseware such as Blackboard, and on the web. Students need to be able to access and edit files created by other students and to comment on digital creations in ways that contribute to discussions among the students involved ina project. Librarians know that students need these areas of knowledge and skills in addition to knowing about information needs, access, evaluation, use, and social implications. The Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, hereinafter the Standards, that were developed in past decades are no longer adequate by themselves to describe all that students need to know in digital environments; neither can librarians be the ones responsible for teaching all of it. Some of it must go back to those computer literacy courses, which should be updated and called digital literacy courses. Maybe some already are called that, but the Association of College & Rese","cbCaimkuaUeNei9d","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimkuaUeNei9d","pdf",328905,"English","# Reflecting on the Standards [Article]\n## Information Literacy and Digital Literacy\n## Competing or Complementary?\n## Abstract\n## Introduction","[{\"question\":\"Why must the relationship between information literacy and digital literacy be clarified?\",\"answer\":\"Before revising the ACRL Standards, the document argues that the connection between the two concepts must be understood to proceed with an accurate update.\"},{\"question\":\"How do librarians’ tasks illustrate the link between the two literacies?\",\"answer\":\"The text describes how librarians support patrons in database searching and ethical use of information while also helping users navigate library websites, save or export citations, and manage digital interactions.\"},{\"question\":\"What prompted the need for updated standards related to digital environments?\",\"answer\":\"The document notes that older information literacy standards do not fully cover what students need in digital settings, and that some responsibilities must shift back to updated digital literacy courses.\"}]","Reflecting on the Standards - Article - Volume 7 - Issue 2 | PDF",1792087575,18]
