Information literacy and technology

School libraries have always been at the forefront of educational technology use within Australia. For many students, the first computer they had ready access to was the library search terminal. When interactive whiteboards or iPad pools start- ed to appear, they were often first placed in libraries, just as photocopiers or micro- fiche viewers had been decades before. The image of the school library as only full of books is not just out of date, it was probably never accurate at all.
