Description
Navigating Information Literacy: Your Information Society Survival Toolkit, 5th edition, by Theo Bothma, Erica Cosijn, Ina Fourie and Cecilia Penzhorn is a practical textbook designed to help students navigate the increasingly complex information environment of the 21st century. It develops the skills needed to find, search for, evaluate, organise and use information effectively in academic and workplace settings.
The book covers information sources and resources, libraries and online portals, constructing effective search queries, web and database searching, organising and retrieving information, ethical and fair use, referencing and evaluating sources. It also guides students in documenting information and using it to create new knowledge. Clear explanations, full-colour screenshots, real-world examples, learning outcomes, key terminology and practical activities make the fifth edition a hands-on introduction to information literacy. An interactive ePUB edition also provides digital activities for practising and reviewing the skills covered in the book.
