In recent years Information Literacy has become a global issue and many Information Literacy initiatives have been documented throughout the world particularly in the field of Higher Education. Under graduate students often lack the skills necessary to succeed in this rapidly changing environment, and faculty need training and support to make use of new technologies for effective teaching and learning. In fact, most academic libraries today are "hybrid libraries", adding the new e-library features to their traditional library services. Information literacy is therefore essential for college students and faculties to cope with new online services and provide a competitive advantage to themselves and the wider society. Without the training it is difficult to use electronic information sources effectively. It is necessary for users to have the requisite skills to obtain relevant information quickly and effectively from electronic sources and become what is often referred to as 'Information literate'. This book outlines the concept of information literacy and the role of college librarians in developing information literacy skills in libraries.
