Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper examines information literacy as an educational concept which must be explored by students in higher education. The concept has to do with an individual's recognition of the need for information, exploring ways to get information, evaluating the information and using the information to solve practical problems. Therefore information literacy programmes that illustrate best practices were highlighted. Ways through which the Nigerian psyche can be evolved through information literacy programmes were discussed. Information literacy skills which are part of strategic information literacy programmes were also highlighted since information is a function of the society. The librarians’ role in information literacy delivery was discussed and how it could help re-brand the minds of our teaming youths towards socially acceptable standards.
