This research aims at exploring the synergies and relationships between information literacy and mobile learning domains in Higher Education environments. The method is based on a narrative literature review of available articles in English (2006-2022) and one selection of the most relevant items using qualitative content analysis, to discover the main topics and their relationships. Results confirm that information literacy and m-learning are close and interrelated domains. Mobile technologies and academic libraries perform an intermediating role in those relationships. With the support of mobile technologies, the progressive integration of information literacy and mobile learning may lead the academic library to experience and channel an enhanced service. The greatest challenge consists in adapting the concepts and behaviors informational and pedagogical to a technology that evolves relentlessly but, in any event, ought to point to individual and community needs. The academic library is a pivotal entity in channeling the progress of IL and mobile learning.
