Abstract

Today’s University population looks very different from those in the past. Multiple cultures combine to make-up both student and faculty personnel. With this in mind the library and librarian's role to ensure quality service can take cues from five forms of literacy that reach well beyond information literacy. This poster will identify and discuss five facets of literacy in relation to the University international student: Information literacy, Reading literacy, Media literacy, Technology literacy, and Visual literacy.
