Information Literacy Umbrella
Just some idle charting on the concepts of information literacy, media literacy, critical thinking, etc. This is simply one (librarian-centric)
possible model of these concepts. The idea is all the other literacies (media literacy, 21st cent literacy, ICT, translit, etc.) involve interacting
with information in one form or another, so "information literacy" acts as the umbrella under which all the others sit.

Ownership and use of technologies does not mean they will be more receptive to adopt tools that enable research and information help.
