The American Library Association formed a Digital Literacy Task Force in 2011. This task force was set up to investigate Digital Literacy in libraries. What needs to be improved, remodelled or removed completely from the policy. The policy is a 21 page document.

As Bobbie Newman is a Member of the ALA. She has set this blog up to be a comment point. You can lodge your comments and thoughts about the policy on her blog and she will pass them on. She also has links for you to do this yourself.

But having this blog is a lot easier to place your comments and thoughts and hopefully it would reach a far wider community than it would normally. As I live in Australia and I am still able to comment on a policy in another country. Whether they take the comments seriously or not, I will never know. But at least I now get the opportunity to do this. I get to have a say.
