Snavely, Loanne; Cooper, Natasha – Journal of Academic Librarianship, 1997
Examines the information literacy debate, focusing on the term and its definition. Discusses the term's lack of clarity and confusion with other terms (library skills, library use, and bibliographic instruction), and considers the pros and cons of using an old term, a new term, or information literacy. Recommends using information literacy. (PEN)
