Standard 1: Students with information literacy decide the nature and scope of the information they need.
1. Students with information literacy identify key concepts and terms that can describe information needs.
2, can find a variety of types and formats of information sources, determine the target and audience of information sources. (such as massive information to academic information, current information to historical information, external information to internal information, primary literature to secondary literature to tertiary literature) Identify and distinguish the existence of various formats (such as multimedia, databases, websites, data sets, patents, geographic information systems, three-dimensional technologies, open file reports, audio-visual reports, books, charts, maps, etc.). ). Identifying these potentially useful information may require specific data management experience and understanding the organizational structure of production information.
3. Have the application knowledge of related literature, and understand its production process. Understand the special literature source knowledge of this discipline, such as manuals, manuals, patents, standards, specifications of materials/equipment, current rules and regulations, commonly used industrial reference materials, industrial production methods and practice manuals, product materials, etc. Recognizing that knowledge can be classified according to disciplines, it is considered that complex disciplines may affect the way of information acquisition. At the same time, the literature of other disciplines may also be related to the information demand. Recognize the value of archival information and its use and importance in different disciplines, and realize the importance of long-term preservation of information.
4. Weigh the cost and benefit of obtaining the required information to determine the availability of the required information, and decide whether to expand the search scope to search for information outside the local collection. Such as consulting colleagues, independent information brokers, industry experts or consultants, and using interlibrary loan services or nearby libraries or information centers. Recognize the importance of maintaining competitive advantage in various research fields, tracking new products, improving processes and monitoring competitors' marketing strategies. Some will also involve consulting experts and industry consultants in patent licensing and intellectual property rights.
Standard 2: Students with information literacy can effectively obtain the information they need.
Students with information literacy use appropriate information retrieval commands to construct retrieval strategies (such as Boolean logic operators, truncation operators and fuzzy retrieval of search engines, internal indexes of books, etc.). ). In different information retrieval systems and search engines, different command languages, protocols and retrieval parameters are used to realize different retrieval strategies (such as email reminder and retrieval options, fields and controlled words, etc.). ). When it is impossible to identify or find suitable literature, use the professional online or face-to-face service of this institution to obtain information. (such as interlibrary loan, document delivery, librarians, librarians, professional associations, scientific research institutions, community resources, subject experts and practitioners, etc.). ) Evaluate the quantity, quality, accuracy, timeliness and relevance of retrieval results and the limitations of retrieval systems or research methods to determine whether other information retrieval systems or research methods should be sought and used.
