The complexity of the contemporary informational environment, especially in the legal field, requires the development of skills related to information search, evaluation, and use. In this context, information literacy, combined with information mediation, plays a fundamental role in the education of law students. This study aims to analyze the contribution of a mediated practical research activity to the development of information literacy in jurisprudence research using the RT Virtual Library, conducted with trainees from the Legal Practice Center (NPJ). This is a qualitative, descriptive study, characterized as an experience report. The activity was carried out in a computer laboratory, mediated by a librarian, involving guided searches, application of filters, and analysis of results within the RT database. The findings indicate significant improvements in search strategies, critical evaluation of sources, and, notably, in the ability to locate, select, and interpret judicial decisions. It is concluded that information mediation, combined with the use of specialized digital databases, contributes to the development of more autonomous, critical, and professionally prepared law students.Conference abstract published in the proceedings of TOI2026 — XII Congresso Internacional em Tecnologia e Organização da Informação.
