As technology evolved and computers took on more and more routine tasks, even a part of cognitive tasks, we again wonder what skills are necessary for students in the information age. What are these unique human skills that complement what computers can do and what will they be able to do in the future. What knowledge and skills will help students make the most of the advancement of information technology. What is literacy for lifelong learning in the information age? A new type of literacy involves research as an integral life skill. For decades, school librarians have been at the forefront of the development of education suitable for a dynamic information environment. They have gone from teaching library skills, through teaching information skills and teaching information literacy, all the way to a broad approach to literacy that includes research skills in the research approach to learning. A student who is information literate: can access information efficiently and effectively, evaluates information critically and competently, uses information correctly and creatively. A student who learns independently: is information literate and searches for information related to his personal interests, appreciates the written word and other creative expressions of information, strives for excellence in searching for information and creating knowledge. A student who positively contributes to a learning community and society, is information literate and recognizes the importance of information for a democratic society, behaves ethically towards information and information technology, effectively participates in groups that seek and create information. It is clear that information literacy with digital and media literacy is evolving into a unique and necessary literacy for the information age, and the librarian needs to be focused on collaboration, commitment, curiosity, emotionality, compassion, enthusiasm, meaningfulness and perseverance.
