Abstract:
Information Literacy (IL) is considered as the core of lifelong learning in the information age. It is widely accepted in the educational sectors; however, some people missed out during formal education. Can IL programs in public libraries support these people to continue their learning? This article explores whether a possible Community IL framework, Prague’s Frame, can facilitate adult learning in public libraries. Further research on CIL is required to extend to many areas in multi- and inter-disciplinary manner.
