English abstract
The adoption of the information literacy (IL) agenda in Spain has been comparatively slow and fragmented due to cultural setbacks during the twentieth century. Since the late 1980s, however, developments in library services and staffing policies, reforms in education, and wide availability of ICTs, among other factors, have led to a brighter picture, with academic and public librarians all over the country engaged in IL activities for all types of users ± though school libraries still lag far behind. The main problems still to be addressed seem to be much the same as in most comparable countries: IL as a responsibility for all learning facilitators, social awareness of lifelong learning needs, training of IL trainers, assessing the individual achievements and the institutional outcomes of IL training programmes, and a clear understanding of the remit and rationale for different literacies within the information society
Spanish abstract
La adopción de la alfabetización informacional en España ha sido relativamente lenta y fragmentado debido a contratiempos culturales durante el siglo XX. Desde finales de 1980, sin embargo, la evolución de los servicios de biblioteca y las políticas de personal, las reformas en la educación, y la amplia disponibilidad de las Tecnologias, entre otros factores, han dado lugar a una serie de avances en bibliotecas públicas y universitarias. Los principales problemas que aún no se han abordado parecen ser similiares a los de los países más comparables. La ALFIN como una responsabilidad para todos los mediadores de aprendizaje, la conciencia social de la necesidad de formación continua, la formación de los formadores, la evaluación de los logros individuales y los resultados institucionales de los programas de capacitación, y una clara comprensión de la misión y razón de ser de las diferentes alfabetizaciones en la sociedad de la información
