Information Literacy Week

Do you find it easy to find the information you need for your assignments? Do you know how to
reference your work correctly? If the answer is no, then you need information literacy skills.
A range of activities for staff and students are taking place across the University during
Information Literacy Week, to raise awareness of the importance of information literacy.

For students
Information skills can help you find and evaluate information quickly and effectively. Developing
your critical thinking skills can lead to better results.

For staff
Embedding information skills into the curriculum can help you enhance the student experience,
helping them to produce quality assignments, whilst enhancing your personal research skills
at the same time.

Information Literacy Week runs from the 14th to 18th March. For further details see: http://www.infolit.salford.ac.uk/.
