Arrange the following concepts related with Information Literacy in logical order :

(i) Evaluate
(ii) Identify
(iii) Locate
(iv) Effective use

  • A.(iii) (iv) (ii) (i)
  • B.(ii) (iii) (i) (iv)
  • C.(ii) (i) (iii) (iv)
  • D.(iv) (iii) (ii) (i)

Answer: B

The logical order is (ii) (iii) (i) (iv): identify, locate, evaluate, use effectively.

Standard definitions of information literacy, such as the American Library Association's, describe the information-literate person as one who can recognise and identify an information need, locate the needed information, evaluate it, and use it effectively. Each step depends on the one before: one cannot locate information without knowing what is needed, or evaluate it before finding it.

The other orders start with locating, evaluating or using, or put evaluation before location, and so break this sequence.
