About Lynley
Contact The Information Workshop

This is a work in progress, both in content and structure, and will be updated every couple of days. We promised the LIANZA Ikaroa Workshop we would make this page available on 8 Dec 2001, so here it is in all its draft imperfection (a single long list with gaps, ???, mucky HTML, etc)...

Our intention is to provide useful links to Information Literacy and related topics for practitioners and planners across all sectors.

At present, there are two strong biases - Australian and School Sector material dominate this list. This will be balanced out as the site develops.

What should we include? Please let us know your favourite sites!! infolit@informationworkshop.com
