Information literacy, defined as the skills and stages of successful
information problem-solving, is often cited as a goal of education efforts
at every level, pre-kindergarten through higher education. For these
efforts to be effective, they must be guided by empirical research on
information literacy. *This study sought to determine the extent to which
evidence of how students develop information literacy skills gleaned from
empirical research is explicitly represented in a high-profile education
policy initiative, the Common Core State Standards. *
