Last month, there was a post on the Microsoft site:
Badanes, G. (2023, January 25). In the digital age, democracy depends on information literacy [blog post]. https://blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/2023/01/25/information-literacy-national-news-literacy-week/
As you can see from the URL, it was commemorating news literacy week, but I found it interesting that they badged it as "Information literacy", although the examples they give are mostly focused on misinformation and media literacy.
It was authored by someone from their Democracy Forward inititiative, which as you can guess from the title is particularly focused on combatting misinformation that could undermine the democratic process. Of course the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation has been a strong supporter of libraries.
