Informacijska pismenost
NOTE: Although the concept of information literacy in Bosnia-Herzegovina was
officially launched in 2008, it is not yet a part of the formal and official
development projects and strategies for lifelong learning. However, the concept
of information literacy is slowly becoming an important subject by certain key
university faculties (e.g. Faculty of Philosophy, University of West Mostar and the
Faculty of Criminology, Criminology and Security Studies at the University of
Sarajevo). However, it is not yet an integral part of the regular curriculum, but
that is the goal and intention of the University of Sarajevo.
The list of IL resources which we provide here is a partial list of just some of the
currently available papers and websites on information literacy available and
accessible in our language. In the future, we hope that this list will become more
complete with fuller and more detailed information, because we expect
additional data not only from the entire territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, but
papers which are written in Croatian and Serbian as well.
We appreciate very much the opportunity this project is providing us because,
now, this small group of IL enthusiasts who are currently operating in Bosnia and
Herzegovina to spread the significance and importance of information literacy,
can become more visible and hopefully will be perceived to possess more
credibility and authenticity in its efforts.
