Abstract

The article discusses the relationship between the concepts of information and IT literacy, both being labeled as «the ultimate literacy in the information society». While IT literacy is mainly defined as a skill-based literacy, information literacy embraces a whole conglomerate of values, attitudes, skills, knowledge and perspectives directed towards enabling critical thinking, self-directed learning and the responsible consume of information, necessary for intelligent existence in the information age. Through a survey, the authors will explore personal meanings and perceptions of information literacy among graduate LIS students. For this population, information literacy is a central issue since it is a prerequisite for academic success, but also because information literacy will be a pervasive aspect of every day work in their future professions. A comparison with an earlier study showed how the information literacy conception has developed, from a more technological, tool-based approach to a concept based approach. The structure of the earlier study, as well as the result of the actual study, will be analyzed in the light of the contemporary features of Croatia's information policy, which is mainly directed towards the technical information infrastructure but not sufficient to let citizens use the benefits of information society.
