Abstract

Information literacy encompasses a range of abilities that enable individuals to recognize the necessity for information, effectively locate and evaluate it, and utilize it efficiently. It is competency that equips individuals with the necessary understanding of information, its characteristics, and the various formats in which it is available. This includes the skills to discern relevant information from irrelevant sources and an ethical approach to consuming and disseminating information. In this study, the information literacy skills of postgraduate students and research scholars at Nagarjuna University were evaluated using a standardized questionnaire. The findings revealed that these groups encounter challenges when attempting to access required information. Additionally, it highlighted the need for them to enhance their proficiency in utilizing electronic resources effectively.
