Higher Education Information Literacy Standards


The Higher Education standards, established by the Association of College & Research Libraries, mirror the K-12 in many ways, although they show more concern for legal and economic issues that responsible members of society face.

Standard One - The information literate student determines the nature and extent of the information needed.
Standard Two - The information literate student accesses needed information effectively and efficiently.
Standard Three - The information literate student evaluates information and its sources critically and incorporates selected information into his or her knowledge base and value system.
Standard Four - The information literate student, individually or as a member of a group, uses information effectively to accomplish a specific purpose.
Standard Five - The information literate student understands many of the economic, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information and accesses and uses information ethically and legally.
