Whatever their level of study, students who are information
literate will get more out of their time at University. Students
with well developed information literacy skills will be better
able to perform research, to evaluate the results of their
search for material and data and so more able to decide on the
steps to take next. Their contributions to seminars and
tutorials should improve as should their written work and its
presentation. An information literate student should be a more
independent learner: less reliant upon his or her tutor for
support. It goes without saying that such students will
naturally make themselves more employable once they leave the
University. They will also better equip themselves for living in
the 21st century. CREATE THE DIFFERENCE
