This document summarizes a presentation on the concept of transliteracy given by Buffy J. Hamilton at the Iowa Association of School Librarians Spring Conference in April 2013. Transliteracy involves navigating, evaluating, sharing, and creating across complex information in various formats. It also means developing fluid literacy skills across different mediums. The presentation explored how libraries can help students develop these transliteracy skills and participate in learning conversations.

12. “The most fundamental notion
of transliteracy is the ability to
adapt. It’s creating a
literacy and fluidity between
mediums that’s not tied to space
or modality.”
