Shapiro, J. J., & Hughes, S. K. (1996). Information literacy as a liberal art. Educom Review, 31(2), 31. Electronic article available through the UNH Library.
"Seminal article" asserting that, as information becomes more accessible and omnipresent, "information literacy should in fact be conceived more broadly as a new liberal art...as essential to the mental framework of the educated information-age citizen as the trivium of basic liberal arts (grammar, logic and rhetoric) was to the educated person in medieval society."
Weibe, T. J. (2016). The information literacy imperative in higher education. Liberal Education 101/102(4/1). Available online from AAC&U.org.
"An education in information literacy aims to empower students to use critical inquiry skills wherever they are. Most of them, in four years, wil not be on a college or university campus. When taught as it should be, information literacy, like other 'meta' skills, becomes portable--a havit of mind that goes places."
