Information literacy is more than just the ability to determine if presented information is true or false. It's a set of skills that allows you to choose the appropriate resource for the information need at hand, to seek more information based on what you've learned, and to use the information you find effectively. 

Library instruction focuses on many kinds of information literacy, including information literacy skills relevant to your major or career, as well as those skills relevant to daily life.
