The aim is to evaluate these skills and their relationship to the level of education attained. The research was classified as quantitative, descriptive-correlational and cross-sectional in design. The study population consisted of 73 employees, 51 of whom participated. The Information Literacy Test (ILT) for higher education was administered; this is an internationally validated instrument aligned with the standards of the Association of University and Research Libraries. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, Spearman's correlation and Mann–Whitney U-test. The results showed that most staff have a low level of information competence (IC). It was concluded that strengthening the education and training of library staff to improve service quality and better support users was a priority.
