IL case studies

The NHS Education for Scotland have developed a series of scenarios to illustrate the stages or steps of the information literacy processes that can be applied to a particular healthcare context.  The scenarios illustrate information queries from both patient and healthcare workers, for example a doctor, nurse, dentist and care assistant.

The CILIP Community Services Group, sub group on Information Literacy commissioned four case studies in 2006, which illustrate best practice in delivery and/or promotion of information literacy in differing library sectors:

• Further education libraries: Amanda Phillips, Learning Centre Manager, Coleg Glan Hafren
Higher education libraries: Moira Bent, Newcastle University
Public libraries: Ronan O'Beirne, Bradford Public Libraries
School libraries: Anne-Marie Tarter, Carol Brook, Alan Chamberlain, Ripon Grammar School.
