# 2nd Call for Papers
# Learning Information Literacy across the Globe 2019

      https://informationliteracy.eu/conference/


The international Conference on Learning Information Literacy across the
Globe will be held on the 10th of May 2019 at Frankfurt Main, Germany.
The Conference is a final part of the Erasmus+ Project Information
Literacy Online, a European project to improve students’ competencies.

In November 2016 the EU project ILO was started with the aim to develop,
evaluate and disseminate a multilingual open access online course (MOOC)
designed to improve students’ abilities to cope with the claims of
present-day information society. In May 2019, the seven partner
institutions will be able to present a MOOC on Information Literacy,
covering six language and cultural areas. An integrated assessment
component will enhance the autonomous learning progress.

The Conference will be a forum for the exchange of research and
experience associated with Information Literacy (IL) Learning. Besides
three keynotes and a panel, several tracks of paper sessions are
planned. Submissions to the following topics of interest are invited:

*   IL as a learning process, including assessment
*   Digital learning resources for IL (e.g. MOOCs, Learning-scenarios,
    OERs)
*   Comparative studies of courses and curricula with an IL lens
*   Cultural diversity of IL
*   IL in connection with other literacy concepts

Many disciplines can contribute: Library and Information Science,
different Learning Sciences, or Research in Cultural Diversity.

The Proceedings of the conference will be published digitally by the
10th of June.
