    Hi everyone,

    We are excited to share our new website introducing the Information Literacy is a Discipline (ILIAD) group! The site provides an overview of the group's ongoing efforts to promote scholarly conversation about recognizing information literacy as a discipline and the implications this may have for information literacy teaching and research.

    You can learn about the group's forthcoming book, Information Literacy Handbook: Charting the Discipline, which will be published by Facet Publishing in 2025. The Updates page shares stories of the groups recent and upcoming presentations and other activities.

    You can find the ILIAD website at:

    https://www.iliad-group.org/

    We hope to see you at one of our upcoming presentations! 

    Thank you,

    Clarence Maybee & Karen Kaufmann
    ILIAD Group Co-leads
