An IL book for that hipster librarian in all of us...
The Information Literacy Cookbook: Ingredients, Recipes and Tips for Success
From Amazon.com:
"This
book, aimed at an international audience, provides an overview of information literacy (IL) in
practice; what it is, why it's become so important in the library profession and demonstrates how
librarians can cultivate a better understanding of IL in their own organisations. It uses the
'Cookbook' theme throughout to provide a more informal approach, which will appeal to
practitioners, and also reflects the need to provide guidance in the form of recipes, tips for
success, regional variations, and possible substitutions if ingredients aren't available. This
approach makes it easy to read and highly valuable for the busy information professional."
So, how's your hipster library coming?
