The University of Washington’s Project Information Literacy is conducting a planning project to help shape a future investigation into the ways college graduates use information literacy training they received in college during their first year after graduation as they seek employment, join the workplace, and continue in their daily lives. Although information literacy standards underscore the importance of training lifelong learners, few studies have systematically investigated the outcomes of information literacy instruction and coaching. The planning project will consist primarily of testing and evaluating the survey instrument that is intended for use in the later study.
