Media And Information Literacy Projects In Libraries To Combat Misinformation

Authors : Brahim Nabila .

Abstract

Libraries face a greater challenge than ever before in navigating the multiple channels through which information is disseminated, as they strive to simplify access to knowledge resources for various community groups. This complicates the differentiation between accurate and false information. This study aims to highlight the role that media and information literacy projects in libraries can play in raising users’ awareness of information and developing their skills through the activities and services they provide. It will also analyse the competencies targeted by this process, as well as the fundamental principles for implementing these projects, in order to improve understanding of the mechanisms for countering misinformation. The study concludes with a call for Algerian libraries to offer workshops on media and information literacy within their institutions.
