Information Literacy

The Framework was approved in January, 2016 by the Association of College and Research Libraries, and replaced the Standards as the primary guiding document from the organization in defining and assessing information literacy. "The Framework is organized into six frames, each consisting of a concept central to information literacy, a set of knowledge practices, and a set of dispositions. The six concepts that anchor the frames are presented alphabetically:"

Authority Is Constructed and Contextual
Information Creation as a Process
Information Has Value
Research as Inquiry
Scholarship as Conversation
Searching as Strategic Exploration

Standards for K-12 Learners developed by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL).
