Information Competence is a key qualification in the knowledge society of the 21st century – for all ages and for all levels of education, from the school, university and research, to adult and senior citizen education. The growing volume of available digital media presents a great challenge: how do we search for and evaluate information? This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of theory and practice in the context of library, information and education science, and at the same time serves as a textbook for the teaching of information competence.
