SCECSAL Pre-Conference Seminar Report

Given the wide range of initiatives being carried out on information literacy in higher educational and research institutions in Africa, there is a need to consolidate and share their learning. This workshop, organised by the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) and Information Training and Outreach Centre for Africa (ITOCA), discussed some of the latest innovations and approaches being used to develop information literacy across Southern Africa, and made recommendations on how to strengthen information literacy initiatives in the future.

The SCECSAL pre-conference seminar report, 5 December 2010, Gaborone, Botswana is available as a PDF file , and printed copies are held in BLDS's Information Unit Book Collection.
