Teaching Information Literacy for Inquiry-Based Learning
Teaching Information Literacy for Inquiry-Based Learning is highly beneficial to those who teach or train people and need to develop systematic ways of using information sources and tools to help them participate in inquiry based learning. Whether at school, college, university or work people need to use the wealth of information around them effectively. They need to find things out, assemble, process, evaluate, manage as well as communicate information. Increasingly a fundamental part of being information literate and an independent learner is being e-literate. This book helps the trainer understand the learner and use appropriate methods to help them explore and engage with being information and e-literate. It also helps the learner to be conscious of what it means to be information and e-literate and to use information effectively. Written by two leading experts in information literacy Draws on extensive personal experience of training learners and trainers in information literacy and information retrieval Uses examples of best practice from the educational context and the workplace

Geography of the Information Economy
This volume provides a geographical perspective on current developments in the information economy. It draws attention to the uneven spatial development of the information economy with respect to the geographical distribution of information, labor, and the electronic forms of information capital. The technical focus of the book is computer network innovations which now penetrate the very core of the production process in all sectors of the economy, from manufacturing to service industries. These technological innovations are analyzed in terms of their potential transformation of information space at a variety of levels from firms and sectors to cities, regions, and countries. Through its theoretical and empirical analysis this volume clearly demonstrates that when the information economy is viewed spatially, profound implications for social science research are revealed.

Information and Communication in Economics
Although there is a burgeoning interest among economists in `information economics', much of the literature adopts a reductionist conceptualization of information, defining it exclusively as reduction in uncertainty, exploring the implications of imperfect information on markets. This neoclassical treatment obscures major interrelations between economic and communicatory processes. Drawing on a range of distinguished scholarship from both the economic and communication studies disciplines, Information and Communication in Economics explores the implications for economic analysis and our understanding of economic processes of employing a more complete conceptualization of information: information as locus of power; information as evolutionary agent; and media systems as devices for control.
