Abstract

In Mapping Information Landscapes: New Methods for Exploring the Development and Teaching of Information Literacy, Whitworth discusses information literacy in relationship to practice theory and discusses mapping as a practice with objectives similar to those of information literacy: namely, finding, selecting, organizing, and communicating information.
