English abstract

The presentation starts with the importance of information as a process of empowerment. It defines the shades of knowledge such as data, information, knowledge and wisdom and explains the over abundance of information materials in print and digital formats. The impermanence of information materials and the need to use the right knowledge, are highlighted. The tools and techniques for gathering information such as use of libraries, types of information materials, ways of note- taking, kinds of reading and the styles of presentation of new knowledge are explained. It is a good presentation material for the librarians who take orientation classes for information seekers such as research scholars/teachers.
