The topics we cover are:- - FOSIL Group website and why you set it up. - What can you find on the website? - Where would you suggest they start? - Why is the discussion forum so important? - If someone wanted to join in a forum discussion what do they need to be aware of? ( importance of subscribing to the conversation to see replies). - Future developments Books mentioned:- Principles and Practice: Learning and Libraries in an Information Age (Edited by Barbara Stripling in 1999!) Carol Kuhlthau’s chapter is called Literacy and Learning for the Information Age. "Inquiry requires information literacy skills.
