Paper
I’ll present the digital literacy training project VOLARE. This is an acronym for “Adult learning with the library as arena” (in Norwegian). VOLARE will be part of Session 94: The importance of information literacy for multicultural populations: needs, strategies, programs, and the role of libraries. This session, with a total of eight papers, takes place on 15 August 2011 09:30 – 12:45 in Exhibition Hall A.
The final programme includes links to most of the papers that will be presented, including VOLARE. My slide presentation (text version only) is available here.
