It takes place on 14 December 2016, 14:00-16:30 UK time, in Stoke-on-Trent, UK. "Information Literacy good practice can be utilised to identify free tools / apps, search for software available, digitising and requesting resources, highlighting support available. We aim to develop staff information literacy skills and believe library and information professionals should make a significant contribution to increasing digital inclusion and participation. This inclusion is dependent upon these professionals having the capabilities and knowledge to promote inclusivity and accessibility".
