Abstract
Information literacy (IL) professionals are engaged in teaching, mentoring, and collaboration, roles that call for deep understanding of strategies for navigating the information environment. The relatively new construct of information experience provides insights into these integrative roles and is considered together with the theoretical construct of threshold concepts. Threshold concepts in the library and information science (LIS) domain have been explored for professional search expertise and for information literacy. The discussion extends from the IL professional’s roles to the experiential realm of threshold knowledge in online learning. Practical illustrations of designing online curriculum for information professionals based on threshold concept research findings are provided.
