Assessing information literacy: Creating generic indicators and target group-specific questionnaires.

Information literacy is defined as the capacity to identify, locate, evaluate, use, create, store and index information. This article deals with the assessment of information literacy. Therefore a list of skills an  information literate person should possess in the 21st century was developed. Based on these indicators,  multiple-choice tests were developed which focus on the target groups of pupils, university students, teachers and researchers. With these tests it is possible to assess the knowledge in terms of information literacy.
