How is HE changing?
“The nature of search in this new world of mobile Internet devices will shift. This is because the journey that Generation Y is taking on the Internet is more concerned with social expression than finding information”
(Taptu White paper Feb 2008 “Making search social for the mobile generation”)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/danahlongley/4472897115/sizes/m/in/photostreamInformation Literacy UmbrellaJust some idle charting on the concepts of information literacy, media literacy, critical thinking, etc. This is simply one (librarian-centric) possible model of these concepts. The idea is all the other literacies (media literacy, 21st cent literacy, ICT, translit, etc.) involve interacting with information in one form or another, so "information literacy" acts as the umbrella under which all the others sit.Danah Longley or danahlongley
