dc.description.abstractAccording to IIE, the numbers of international students studying in the US has been growing every year for the past 12 years. Since 2% of all international students come Mexico thus the study will focus on this country. In particular, the researchers are interested in information literacy practices of Mexican librarians and information professionals. The objective of this paper presentation is twofold: to share preliminary survey results and second to add to the body of knowledge regarding the current landscape of Mexicans librarians’ approach to information literacy. This presentation suggests that learning about students prior experiences with information literacy in Mexico could have a positive impact both for the student and the librarian. The student’s experience is validated and built upon and the librarian can modify their current teaching methods to adequately bridge the disjunctions, if any, that students may experience when studying in a North American research university.en_US
