Latest on ACRL Information Literacy Competency Standards #acrlilrevisions

There is a new short report from the ACRL Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education Task Force. The revised draft of the Framework will be published in the week beginning June 16. In this new brief report there is mostly information on the structure of the next draft. There will be an online "sandbox" for the examples and guidance that may date. the Framework will gain an introduction on How to Use This Framework and there "will also be separate guides for faculty members and administrators". It seems like the threshold concepts are being labelled as "frames" (not sure whether Christine Bruce et al. are an influence there!) You can download the new report from: http://connect.ala.org/node/223580
Just to remind you, the existing Framework drafts are on the website at http://acrl.ala.org/ilstandards/
