The Practice and Promise of Critical Information Literacy: Academic Librarians' Involvement in Critical Library Instruction	2018-01-03	25	.pdf	application/pdf	14306	514	37	Using a survey and follow-up inter- views with thirteen librarians practicing critical information literacy, this paper illustrates some of the many ways that librarians incorporate this vital approach to teaching the complexities of information, as well as the potential advantages and difficulties of doing so. This call to recognize the importance of social justice to libraries and librarians’ work has gained visibility in the scholarly literature and profession as a whole since first making its appearance fifteen years ago.1 As a theory and practice, critical information literacy (critical IL) aims to understand how libraries participate in systems of oppression and find ways for librarians and students to act upon these systems.	cache/crl-16616.pdf	txt/crl-16616.txt
