Two articles today focusing on Information Literacy and democracy, both by Bill Johnston. Firstly an article that will form part of a special issue of Information Matters (on Information Literacy: A Discipline for the Future) that Bill, Clarence Maybee, Karen Kaufmann, John Budd and I are currently putting together. I will link to more of these articles in future posts.
