What are the unique benefits & challenges of Information Literacy at AMICALs Institutions? Finding the answers to this question is the starting point to identify how the uniqueness of our consortium influences the way information literacy (IL) is approached at our institutions. What makes us similar and, at the same time, different from other higher education institutions in North America? The idea is to highlight those characteristics, and the consequent challenges that we have to face.
