The key elements of the information literacy integration model are shown in Figure 1.
The model includes three key interconnected components, i.e. what, who and how.
Theintended outcome of the model is to enable students to be information literate.
The “what” element deals with the information literacy guidelines in the intended
curriculum (i.e. what the university intends to teach).
These guidelines include the institutional graduate information literacy attributes or profiles, the graduateinformation literacy requirements required by an accrediting professionalorganization, and the institutional or national information literacy policies such asthe institutionally endorsed information literacy standards, institutional information literacy policies, or related national information literacy strategies.
The “who” element deals with the people who are involved in the information
literacy curricular integration group by answering questions such as:
. Who are the key stakeholders in information literacy integration?
. Who is involved in the information literacy curricular working group?
. How to collaborate?
