Reflections on how librarians teach information literacy: a book review of Aston, S. and Walsh, A., 2021. Library Pedagogies: Personal reflections from library practitioners. Huddersfield: Innovative Libraries Press.
Overview
This book will help librarians to reflect on and improve their teaching to meet the contemporary
needs of their learners and develop the information and digital skills of students. Librarians who
teach don’t need reminding of the many definitions that exist for information literacy from ALA,
ANCIL and CILIP as examples. Equally important in current library instruction is the JISC
definition of digital literacy: “equipping students to live, learn and work in a digital society”
(JISC, 2019).
