Project Abstract

Abstract
The integration of technology in library science education has significantly transformed the landscape of information literacy skills acquisition. This research study aims to explore the impact of technology on information literacy skills in library science education, focusing on how technological advancements influence the teaching and learning of information literacy skills in the digital age. The study will investigate the extent to which technology has reshaped traditional approaches to information literacy instruction and examine the challenges and opportunities that arise from this transformation. The research will be guided by a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. A comprehensive literature review will provide a theoretical framework for understanding the relationship between technology and information literacy skills in library science education. The literature review will explore existing research on the role of technology in enhancing information literacy skills, as well as the potential drawbacks and limitations associated with technology integration in educational settings. The research methodology will involve surveys, interviews, and observations to gather data from students, educators, and librarians in the field of library science education. The study will analyze the data to identify trends, patterns, and correlations between technology use and information literacy skills development. Additionally, the research will investigate the perceptions and experiences of stakeholders regarding the benefits and challenges of incorporating technology into information literacy instruction. The findings of this study are expected to provide valuable insights into the impact of technology on information literacy skills in library science education. By examining the ways in which technology influences the teaching and learning of information literacy skills, the research aims to inform best practices for integrating technology into library science education curricula. The study will also contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the role of technology in shaping the future of information literacy education in an increasingly digital world. Overall, this research seeks to advance our understanding of how technology can be leveraged to enhance information literacy skills in library science education. By identifying the opportunities and challenges associated with technology integration, the study aims to inform educators, policymakers, and other stakeholders about the implications of incorporating technology into information literacy instruction. Ultimately, the research aims to facilitate the development of effective strategies for promoting information literacy skills in library science education and preparing students for success in an information-rich society.
