Abstract

In Finland there is still much to be done to promote integrated information literacy in higher education. Teamwork between teachers and libraries is well developed in some universities but many are only just beginning to realize what libraries can do for them. Academic libraries have provided user education since the 1950s, but they still have to prove themselves to teaching staff in universities. The Finnish virtual university portal is in the process of integrating library services into their portal, but many negotiations remain before mutual goals are achieved. This article gives an overview of these changes and other information literacy activities in Finnish academic libraries.
