On behalf of UNESCO, IFLA (International Federation of Library 
Associations and Institutions) and its Information Literacy Section 
(InfoLit), we invite everyone to propose an international Logo to 
identify information literacy work.  The aim of creating this Logo is 
to make communication easier between those who carry out information 
literacy projects, their communities, and society in general.  The 
Logo will be available free of charge and promoted as an 
international symbol of information literacy.  The term "information 
literacy" is defined as:

"To be information literate, a person must be able to recognize when 
information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and 
use effectively the needed information.  The information literate 
individuals are those who have learned how to learn" (ALA, 1998).

IFLA and UNESCO invite all institutions and organizations from 
different countries to participate in the Logo contest design.  If 
you represent an association or an organization and would like to 
endorse, support or promote this initiative in your country, please, 
send an email to the project coordinator.
