| Abstract | "Transliteracy is a relatively new concept attracting a great deal of interest in the library and information field, particularly among practitioners. Transliteracy in Complex Information Environments considers transliteracy in relation to other literacies and positions it as an overarching concept and information framework. Transliteracy concerns the ability to apply and transfer a range of skills and contextual insights to a variety of settings. Rather than focusing on any one skill set or technology, transliteracy is about fluidity of movement across a range of contexts. The book proposes a model of transliteracy and its implementation in formal and informal life-long learning. It also considers transliteracy in relation to academic cultures and broader social trends, particularly hybrid cultures"--Back cover. |
