- Abstract
The paper discusses the concept of information literacy in the context of a fundamental human right to have an adequate education based on scientific and expertise knowledge above and beyond mere computerization and technical infrastructure. The information behavior as exhibited by the Net generation is almost exclusively driven by technological possibilities and what can be gained by simple use of IC technology. The endless possibilities of the digital universe and the multitude of available information began to be the cause of disappointment, frustration and confusion, since everyone has to struggle with this ever-growing ocean of information of different quality and purpose, so more and more important is becoming a question of its authenticity, value and reliability. Young members of the so-called Net generation are already largely present as the teaching staff in the educational process at all levels of education from pre-school to high education. They have acquired certain habits of information behavior and information seeking behavior just as members of that generation to whom the use of that kind of technology is very close. This opens the way for the "new" role of librarians as professionals for organizing recorded knowledge and information mediating between sources of information and those who need the information, to educate a new generation of users to adequately search and use information. Such approach requires a new profile of library information specialist, who must be extremely educated and adopt a variety of new skills and competencies to cope with the demands of the new educational paradigm.
