Information literacy is a term that is utilised to refer to the set of skills required to identfifyinformation needs, locate, evaluate and use information (American Library Association, 1989).Past research studies (Fain, 2011; Foo et al., 2014; Tang, 2018) have shown that students oftenhave trouble in identifying, locating, evaluating and using information. In education settings,some faculty members believe that it is the responsibility of librarians to teach these skills(Derakhshan & Singh, 2011; Weiner, 2014). There are also studies (Hawes & Adamson, 2016;Otoide & Idahosa, 2018) that have demonstrated how faculty members and librarians haveequal stakes and mutual goals in developing the information literacy skills of students.
