摘要:This paper focuses information literacy (IL) from a methodological perspective, addressing
quantitative IL measures, suitable for evaluating the role of IL in supporting work activities. So
far, IL in workplace contexts has mostly been studied using qualitative methods, designed for
studying situational and context-dependent practices. Therefore it is important to explore how
quantitative measures could be used to bring forward the relation between IL and organisational
outcomes, that is the assessment of the impact of IL in workplace contexts. Quantitative
research into IL is not unknown, but has been mainly developed in higher education, in order to
measure students’ abilities to make use of information.
