English abstract

The search for incentives to promote the use of information resources, their identification, evaluation, understanding and usage amongst library users and non users is not new. However, the expression information literacy is relatively new and quite common nowadays because of the Internet and the accessibility to intranets and extranets. In this context librarians have to exert good practices in order to contribute to the elimination of teaching activities based on the chalk and the blackboard. If information literacy means the education of students for a better life, any action should be focused on the development of information competencies including other implicit literacies in order to abandon traditional teaching methods to place the Web at the center of the teaching-learning process.

Spanish abstract

La búsqueda de formas para incentivar a usuarios de bibliotecas —e incluso a aquellos que no lo son— a aprovechar el contenido de los repositorios, a su localización, valoración, comprensión y uso, no es algo del presente, sino una preocupación muy antigua. No obstante, la expresión alfabetización informacional, con que se denomina dicha preocupación, es relativamente nueva. Su auge proviene del surgimiento de Internet y el uso de las intranets y extranets. En este contexto, los bibliotecólogos deben propiciar el desarrollo de prácticas que contribuyan a evitar actividades docentes basadas en la tiza y la pizarra. Por tanto, si alfabetizar en información es participar en la formación de los estudiantes para una vida mejor, cualquier acción que estos emprendan debe estar dirigida al desarrollo de competencias informacionales que abarquen, incluso, las alfabetizaciones implícitas que conduzcan al abandono de las formas tradicionales de educación para ceder el lugar a aquellas en las que la Web es el escenario central.
