Kairos, Information Literacy and Praxis: Critical Theory and Critical Practice in LIS and Academic Librarianship

Abstract

Kairos involves both an understanding of thesociohistorically-informed present and a recognition ofpresent necessities. Examining the state ofinformation literacy scholarship, we argue we arewithin a kairotic moment where LIS scholars andlibrarians need to merge critical theories and criticalpractices to create a critical praxis of librarianship.Le Kairos implique à la fois une compréhension duprésent tel qu’il est façonné sociohistoriquement etune reconnaissance des nécessités actuelles. Suite ànotre examen de l’état de la recherche sur lacompétence informationnelle, nous avançons quenous sommes arrivés à un kairos où les chercheursen sciences de l’information et les bibliothécairesvont devoir fusionner les théories critiques et lespratiques critiques pour créer une pratique critique dela bibliothéconomie.
