Introduction What is information literacy? And how is it related to lifelong learning? Information literacy as defined by the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) is ‘…the set of skills needed to find, retrieve, analyze, and use information.’1 Information literacy, as defined above and used by librarians, is critical to the ability for students to become fully capable lifelong learners. The rapid growth of information in all fields of study, but most particularly in technical degree programs, means that students will not learn all there is to know about their chosen profession before leaving school. Thus, they need to gain the skills to be lifelong learners to keep-up with the innovations and changes in their profession. ‘Ultimately, information literate people are those who have learned how to learn. They know how to learn because they know knowledge is organized, how to find information and how to use information in such a way that others can learn from them. They are people prepared for lifelong learning, because they can always find the information needed for any task or decision at hand.’2 Purdue University Strategic Plan Goals Purdue University highlights the need for these skills in the most recent strategic plan in Goal 1,
