Information Today's Internet Librarian International (ILI) has organised a number of "bite sized" half day sessions. On 11 May 2022, 14.00-16.45 UK time, there are three 1-hour sessions. The one of most interest to this blog is: Jesus Lau, on Information and Media Literacy: An Imperative for Today’s Information Ecosystem. Lau is Co-chair, UNESCO Media & Information Literacy Alliance and award-winning expert on information literacy. He "puts the threat of misinformation and disinformation into perspective, and describes initiatives that will help us all determine good information from bad. "
The other two speakers are: Marshall Breeding on Latest Developments in Library Technology and Jan Holmquist on Look Here! Creating a Library Portal for Video Content. The whole event is chaired by Marydee Ojala.
