The maximum number of entries on a single list is about 65, but, at the other extreme, the contributors were told that even one entry on their list would be welcome, because that single resource, while just a beginning, could well make the difference in enabling and empowering young, middle aged or senior people to better deal with, or not, their many everyday life crises and challenges. If possible, contributors of the language lists were told that they should try to include at least a few materials that are primarily pragmatic and non-technical in character, such as tutorials, targeted so as to be helpful to ordinary citizens. However, it is fully realized that this may not always be possible because, at this very early stage in the IL concept’s development, such tutorial materials may not yet have been developed in indigenous languages, as opposed to English, which is more widely used, especially by scientists and researchers in order to increase publication and therefore career advancement opportunities. As a “last resort,” some contributors may need to translate one or more existing important English language resources back into a native language. Also, contributors were urged to utilize a “disclaimer” similar to that which appears below. “This is a list to some important but selected Information Literacy Resources that are available and accessible from various websites and from other kinds of published sources in the (specify) language. The list contains institutional website URLs (e.g. for Information Literacy standards and guidelines, teaching methods, research underway, model lesson plan outlines, etc., often by university faculty and professional societies and government agencies) as well as Information Literacy books, journals and other kinds of publications and documents, including their ISBNs and ISSN citations and links (e.g. for journal articles, conference talks and presentations appearing in conference reports and on websites, Overview of Information Literacy Resources Worldwide |30
professional society and association policy statements, etc.). Also, key dissertations may be included. The contributors wish to emphasize that no attempt has been made to produce an exhaustive, comprehensive, inclusive and authoritative listing, but only to generate a partial list of some of the most significant IL resources that are available and accessible at this point in time from (specify) language sources and authors. We fully realize that this listing of selected items is only a "snapshot in time" and that new IL resources are being added virtually every month, and existing ones amended, updated, superseded or entirely deleted. Please bring any omissions or errors of commission to our attention. Thank you and we hope that this endeavor will be helpful and timely, not only to Information Literacy teachers, students, researchers, government agencies, professional associations, and institutions and organizations concerned with education and training, but ordinary citizens, students and non-specialists in countries with (specify) speaking populations, not only in their indigenous geographic region, but anywhere in the world where a Diaspora may exist.” Their lists, in short, would not have to be necessarily fully comprehensive and inclusive, authoritative or peer-reviewed, but they were encouraged to collaborate with their peers in developing their lists. And errors of both omission and commission of entries were encouraged to be reported back by viewers to the contributors. Thus, this initial document contains about forty individual language lists which have been prepared to date. Additional submissions are expected in future months and uploaded online. Already in hand and included herein, or in preparation and expected soon, are Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Turkish, French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Brazilian, Korean, Arabic, English, Portuguese, Italian, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, Icelandic, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Slovakian, Bulgarian, Romanian, Hindi, Bengali, Nepali, Lithuanian, Overview of Information Literacy Resources Worldwide |31
