Tomorrow's illiterate will not be the man who can't read; he will be the man who has not learned how to learn."

Extractions: report on a lecture tour In early 2000, Professor Peter Underwood was invited by the President of the Commonwealth Library Association (COMLA), Elizabeth Watson, to be the keynote speaker at a seminar on information literacy and related matters, to be held in Christchurch, New Zealand. The discovery that another major conference of librarians (the Library and Information Association of New Zealand and Aotearoa) was to take place immediately prior to the seminar provided an opportunity for him to submit a paper for that, also. Subsequently, he received invitations to extend his stay to provide seminars at the University of Otago, Dunedin, and, on the North Island, to the members of the Tertiary Alliance. In all, he spent the period 13 - 29 October, visiting both the North and South Islands. The report, which is available as a PDF file, contains summaries of the papers of all speakers at the conferences and other events, together with hyperlinks to associated materials.

Extractions: 98 -10 October, 1998 SUMMARY Information Literacy as a Liberal Art was offered as a two-credit course (GenSt 391) in Winter and Spring quarters, 1998. The course provided an introduction to information resources "in an electronic environment," and enrolled primarily student athletes and EOP (Educational Opportunity Program) students. Short pre- and post-tests assessed student experience, skill level and knowledge, and a post-course instructor debriefing yielded a set of recommendations based on the test results and experiences over the course of the quarter. Students showed increases from pre- to post-test in both self-reported and objectively assessed knowledge. Recommendations centered around integrating information and technology literacy into undergraduate education campus-wide. THE COURSE Information Literacy as a Liberal Art was taught by University of Washington (UW) librarians (two per section). The course presented information retrieval and use as a three-step process: Find what you want searching and evaluating online resources Get what you want retrieving information, including articles, books, documents
