Overview

High-speed connectivity, massive growth in social media, the ubiquity of mobile devices, and the emergence of artificial intelligence have led to information confusion, chaos and complexity. The ability for everyone to create, find, evaluate, use and apply information effectively is critical to successful personal, societal and global outcomes. Libraries and librarians must adapt their services and instructional approaches to engage with digital natives, immigrants and refugees to ensure all gain the competencies required by digital citizens. What constitutes digital literacy and how can we do it better? This book explores concepts, frameworks, and practices in digital literacy to foster adoption of initiatives to extend digital literacy to all.
