At the beginning of October we posted that it’s Information Literacy Month. Our post included some words about info literacy by President Obama. It includes a mention of libraries.

Today, a Q&A interview with Sharon Weiner, the W. Wayne Booker Endowed Chair in Information Literacy for Purdue Libraries and the vice president of the National Forum on Information Literacy.

Questions include:

+ What is Information Literacy?

+ What sector would you say lacks the most literacy, or is less publicized?

+ What can a reference librarian do that I can’t do on Google?

+ And Several Others
