The document discusses developing an information literacy strategy for the Department of Town and Regional Planning at the University of Sheffield. It aims to empower students to become independent learners through improving their ability to find, evaluate, and use information effectively. The strategy identifies gaps, sets expectations for information literacy skills at each academic level, and develops targeted teaching and assessments to strengthen these skills. By explicitly integrating information literacy across the curriculum, the strategy intends to facilitate research-led teaching and support students beyond graduation.
