That same year, the inaugural Visual Literacy Task Force <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110137317&mm=50762336707> was formed to craft a set of standards that would complement the now rescinded 2001 <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110138539&mm=50762336707> ACRL <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110138539&mm=50762336707>Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110138539&mm=50762336707> (Information Literacy Standards). The resultant standards, the 2011 <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110139761&mm=50762336707>Visual Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110139761&mm=50762336707> (Visual Literacy Standards) highlighted ways in which visuals are distinct from other information types. In the years following the publication of the Visual Literacy Standards, librarians began to engage with threshold concepts <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110140983&mm=50762336707>, metacognition <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110142205&mm=50762336707>, and metaliteracies <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110143427&mm=50762336707>, reflected in the 2016 ACRL <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110144649&mm=50762336707> Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110144649&mm=50762336707> (Framework), which replaced the Information Literacy Standards. Ongoing critical conversation continues to shape how learners are taught to create, use, share, and assess information in the twenty-first century. Addressing these shifts, ACRL assembled several task forces in 2018 to develop Framework Companion Documents and update disciplinary literacy standards documents. In this spirit, the current Visual Literacy Task Force was formed by the Image Resources Interest Group to update the 2011 Visual Literacy Standards. At the outset, we acknowledged that visual literacy and related terminology remained difficult to define due to variations in use and meaning across disciplines. We also recognized that mapping to the Framework would be a challenging exercise. Success would require the participation of thoughtfully engaged stakeholders. Therefore, we began by conducting an IRB-approved qualitative research study[i] <https://members.ivlaconference.org/ct.php?lid=110145871&mm=50762336707>. From fall 2019 to spring 2021, we interviewed a broad community of practitioners and scholars, including architecture and planning librarians. Participants were asked to define visual literacy, identify necessary skills and competencies for their discipline, and discuss what they perceived as challenges and opportunities. By coding the interviews, we identified four themes that serve as the backbone for the current Visual Literacy Framework Companion Document draft. These themes are: · Perceive visuals as communicating information; · Participate in a changing information lands

Hello MCN'ers, Please excuse the cross-posting. The accessCeramics team has put together an accessCeramics survey in order to assess and develop AccessCeramics and to improve it in future. I know that I have heard from many of you at conferences and personally regarding this project, so I wanted to extend an invitation to each of you to fill it out! Responses are anonymous, and the survey should take about 10 minutes to complete. We're hoping to have all responses in by July 1st.

[MCN-L] Update on Images for Academic Publishing...?
**Please excuse cross-posting!** Hello collective wisdom, I wanted to update my records on which museums and institutions offer images for academic publishing, so that if a faculty member wants information on what is available "out there" for high-quality imagery for their upcoming publication, I will have an updated list. At VRA/ARLIS 2011, ARTstor presented on the expansion of their IAP program, so I am already aware of what they are doing. My records are now outdated and consist of the V&A Museum and the British Museum. Does anyone know of others? Also, I know that stipulations usually require a print run of 4,000 or less and may have other usage restrictions. In addition to ARTstor, I am also aware of VADS, Bridgeman Art Library, AKG-images, and of course, Art Resource. From the VRA Listserve, I was able to add AICT and Yale University Art Gallery my no-cost list and the New York Public Library, the Granger Collection, and Archivision as some for-a-fee options. Are there other similar services? Thank you so much! -------- Stephanie Beene (MA and MSIS) Visual Resources Coordinator Lewis and Clark College 0615 SW Palatine Hill Rd.
