However, the present study focuses on the need and purpose of the 'information literacy' in the modern era of technologies. With the help of this study, the investigators make an effort to investigate the awareness, knowledge, use of different search techniques and usefulness of the social networking sites for the development of information literacy among the PG students of Aligarh Muslim University. The findings of this study will serve as a great help for the coming generations to improve their information literacy skill. literacy skill means possessing knowledge as to which type of information is required, what type of resources are available for that information, have the knowledge how to find the information and how to communicate the findings with others. Australian and New Zealand information literacy framework (2004) state that Information literacy is an intellectual framework for recognising the need for understanding, finding, evaluating, and using information. These are activities which may be supported in part by fluency with information technology, in part by sound investigative methods, but most importantly through critical discernment and reasoning. IL initiates, sustains, and extends lifelong learning through abilities that may use technologies but are ultimately independent of them. According to American Library Association (2000) the Literacy objectives are identified as follows: [...] literacy forms the basis for lifelong learning. It is common to all disciplines, to all learning environments, and to all levels of education. It enables learners to master content and extend their investigations, become more self-directed, and assume greater control over their own learning. An information literate individual is able to. * To determine the extent of information needed * To provide access the needed information effectively and efficiently * To evaluate information and its sources critically * To incorporate selected information into one's knowledge base * Use information effectively to accomplish a specific purpose * Understand the economic, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information, and access and use information ethically and legally. …" @default.
