Celebrate Indiana Information Literacy Week!

October 1-7, 2012

On September 14, 2012, Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels proclaimed the first week of October, 2012, as Indiana Information Literacy Week. Recognizing that “information literacy provides the knowledge and skills to find, evaluate and use credible information from all sources in our constantly evolving world” and that it is a “key component to providing an education to all students in our state… by utilizing this constantly changing technology to navigate and evaluate our expanding information environment,” Governor Daniels and the Department of Teaching & Learning, Indiana University Libraries, encourage you to embrace and celebrate information literacy efforts across the state. As Governor Daniels expressed in his proclamation, we would like to remind our Hoosier community of “the benefits information literacy makes available socially, economically and culturally for the State of Indiana from the rich resources of librarians.”

Please join us in recognizing all of our combined efforts within the Indiana University Libraries community that serve to advance and inform information literacy initiatives throughout the state of Indiana.
