Twenty nine teachers completed a pre-and post-course information literacy questionnaire. The teachers were part of a school librarianship programme offered at the University of the Western Cape. The results of the study indicate that the intervention of the course had a positive effect on teachers� information literacy.enThis is the author post-print of a conference paper published in the Proceedings.
