Information literacy research: dimensions of the emerging collective consciousness. A reflection

Abstract

In this article, I reflect on the changes to the information literacy research domain since it was written. I provide a highly personal perspective based on my interactions with researchers, research student through visits, consultancies, conferences and reading over the years. I have deliberately reflected in a conversational way although there are parts of the article which may be of more interest to researchers themselves. Towards the end, I raise the question of what it takes for a research domain to be considered mature and how this might apply to information literacy research.
