Abstract

 
 
 IASL and IFLA have provided funding for an international study of the principal's role in developing and supporting information literacy. In this paper, the researchers describe the development of this international project and report on the progress of the study in two of the participant countries, Australia and Canada. Some preliminary findings are presented related to both the research questions and the research methodology. This information will be of interest to researchers who might want to replicate the study in other countries. The completed research should provide information that will be useful to principals and school librarians in countries throughout the world, as they struggle in difficult times to provide quality schooling and information services and to contribute to the development of literate and independent library users.
