Abstract
In the next several months, ACRL will likely approve a new and important document: the Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education. This document is intended to replace the Standards for Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, a seminal publication that has guided information literacy instruction for well over a decade. Since 2012, the ACRL Information Literacy for Competency Standards for Higher Education Task Force has drafted and revised the new Framework document. This process has been very open, and as a result, has inspired academic librarians to engage in renewed reflection and conversation about the nature of information literacy and its instruction. At this writing, the Framework is still a work in progress. Multiple drafts have been circulated among librarians, feedback has been elicited, and the final revisions and submission to ACRL are expected to be completed in a few months.
