Abstract
This paper is based on the researcher’s pilot study results. The PhD study aims to explore information literacy practices in primary schools of Lahore, Pakistan. Lahore is a major Pakistani city and is the research site for the study. The paper discusses the study’s background, methodology and the results of the pilot study. The research design of the study is multiple sequential case studies and exploratory in nature. The pilot interviews were conducted with class 1 & 2 English teachers and two focus groups with students in one of the private school of Lahore city. The findings establish limited IL practice and the inadequate role of the library in implementing IL at pilot site. Children were enthusiastic about reading, however were not allowed to read different library books. These results endorse proper and integrated use of the library by teachers and students and hiring of professional librarians for the implementation of IL instruction.
