The document discusses findings from the LILAC 2009 symposium on sharing information literacy (IL) learning materials. It notes a lack of centralized access to high-quality IL learning objects and a need to reduce duplication of effort. The IL RLO Share wiki was created as an online community for discussing sharing, re-purposing, and improving the quality of IL learning materials. The document promotes uploading materials to repositories like JorumOpen and tagging them to help find relevant IL resources.

4. Huge demand for face to face events and online support, advice, information. Community of Practice Little re-purposing going on. Need an audit of currently available material to stop duplication of effort. Re-purposing No consensus on how to control quality – need to revisit this. Quality control Clear licensing was a big issue for all. Need to agree how we want to share material. Sharing Currently no single point of access to high quality IL learning material. Standards of storage should be agreed by us all. Storage/ preservation We are still creating learning material that is already available. Need to agree on generic, good quality learning objects for all to use. Design/ Development Overall finding Discussion topic
