Literacia digital
A European Schoolnet e a Digital Europe produziram e publicaram em Junho de 2012 um Manifesto intitulado The e-skills Manifesto. Deste documento, orientado para a indústria e o mundo do trabalho, destacamos um extrato dirigido à educação básica e secundária, onde se alude à importância da exploração de novos espaços e tópicos de aprendizagem, questão particularmente cara às bibliotecas escolares que, neste domínio, têm um importante papel a desempenhar:
Start in primary and secondary education
The acquisition of e-skills early in life, starting from primary school to the outset of a student’s academic career, has the power to transform the individual. Students become more adept at managing and capitalising on information. This cultivates an innovative mindset which will increasingly be an important asset when entering the workforce. (...) A further evolutionary step would be the integration of such learning elements into curricula in support of organisational innovation in educational institutions (e.g. exploring new learning spaces and topics), actually driving innovation in education with the help of ICT.
