Information Literacy Petition to Scottish Parliament

Christine Irving has given an update on this. "The public petitions committee met on the 31st May and agreed that given the number and quality of the responses they had received regarding the petition that they would seek our views as the petitioner. Responses received included the Scottish Executive, Learning and Teaching Scotland, the Scottish Qualifications Authority, Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education, the Educational Institute of Scotland, Universities Scotland, the School Library Association in Scotland, and Unison school librarians in Scotland. We have until early September to comment on the responses so we will be reviewing the comments over the summer." You can get access to the responses via their website - makes an interesting read! http://www.learningservices.gcal.ac.uk/
