Information literacy

The IL project of Chemnitz University of Applied Sciences was initiated in 2005 with the aim of imparting the key qualification of information literacy, which was part of the new bachelor and master courses system.

Information literacy is indispensable in everyday professional and scientific life as a 'soft skill'. In addition to the knowledge of efficient research and navigation strategies, information literacy includes above all the creativity to consciously design one's own information process in a way that meets one‘s goals.

The library or the subject librarians are responsible for the teaching of information literacy courses in their respective fields.

This online course was revised and updated in 2024, both in terms of content and appearance. It can serve as a common teaching and learning concept for all courses/subjects in the BA/MA area.

At present the following subjects/subjects are included:

The courses usually take place in the winter semester.

The new e-learning offer can be found under MIKA.
