Abstract

Through analysing how information literate practitioners emerged in the pre-digital era, how they were taught and how they communicated their understandings of practice, we can better appreciate how these actors helped shape contemporary information landscapes. Such studies can be conducted through the resources in special collections of libraries and archives. Case studies of medieval scholarly practice, and the history of the island of St Helena, are presented as examples of where these archival sources reveal the influence of historic information (literate and illiterate) practice on modern information landscapes.  
档案是信息扫盲的序曲
通过分析信息扫盲从业人员在前数字时代是如何出现的,他们是如何接受教育的,以及他们是如何传播自己对实践的理解的,我们可以更好地理解这些参与者是如何帮助塑造当代信息景观的。此类研究可以通过图书馆和档案馆的特藏资源进行。中世纪学术实践和圣赫勒拿岛历史的案例研究,就是这些档案资料揭示历史信息(识字的和不识字的)实践对现代信息景观影响的例子。

期刊介绍: JIL is an international, peer-reviewed journal that aims to investigate information literacy in all its forms to address the interests of diverse IL communities of practice. To this end it publishes articles from both established and new authors in this field. JIL welcomes contributions that push the boundaries of IL beyond the educational setting and examine this phenomenon as a continuum between those involved in its development and delivery and those benefiting from its provision. This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. The journal is published under the Gold Open Access model, because the CILIP Information Literacy Group believes that knowledge should be shared. It is therefore free and requires no subscription. In addition authors are not required to pay a fee to be published in JIL. The Journal of Information Literacy is published twice a year. Additional, special themed issues are also possible and the editor welcomes suggestions. JIL has an acceptance rate of 44% for articles submitted to the journal.
