INFORMATION LITERACY AT NJCU
INTRODUCTION
In the information age, Information Literacy or the ability to
define, retrieve, evaluate and use information found, ethically and
legally is crucial. Lifelong learning becomes a must in developing an
informed citizenry, an up-to-date professional and a socially aware
human being. Information Literacy is one of the core competencies that
NJCU expects from its graduates.
Faculty and staff are therefore encouraged to bring
their students to the library (click here to fill out a request online),
or at least to point out the vast resources that are provided which
are not available for free from other sources. All beginning students
should be brought to the library, additionally when they start in their
majors and also in research courses. Because knowledge and information
sources are dynamic, every session adds to, and reinforces what was
learned before.
The Guarini Library helps promote Information Literacy on campus through
all its services and the following instructions, tutorials and the Information
Literacy rubrics.
