title: Context and learning: the value and limits of library-based information literacy teaching.
abstract: This month's regular feature will discuss some of the implications for library-based information literacy teaching that have emerged from a HEA-funded research project conducted at De Montfort University. It is argued that information literacy teaching as it has evolved in a university setting, while having a greater degree of relevance and value than ever before, nevertheless has inherent limits when it comes to its transferability beyond the academy and into a workplace setting.
