- Students’ perceptions of Information Literacy skills: new perspectives through a Portuguese experience with PILSPublication . Lopes, Carlos; Antunes, Maria Luz; Sanches, Tatiana; Kurbanoğlu, S.; Boustany, J.; Špiranec, S.; Ünal, Y.; Şencan, I.; Kos, D.The modern information ecosystem poses significant challenges due to the vast and rapid production of information across diverse media. Distinguishing accurate information from misinformation and disinformation is increasingly critical, necessitating proactive measures such as education campaigns and public awareness initiatives. The literature underscores the importance of enhancing critical thinking skills and the ability to evaluate information sources to empower citizenship, individual autonomy, and creativity. Policymakers are urged to prioritize these goals, advocating for the training of proactive critical thinkers through validated strategies for information literacy (IL). Academic libraries have shown commitment to combating disinformation, though deeper research is needed. This study investigates academic students’ perceptions of their IL, utilizing the PILS scale, adapted into European Portuguese. Findings emphasize the relevance of IL skills to address disinformation, offering valuable recommendations for teaching and academic library practices, particularly within the Portuguese higher education context.
