Asking questions as part of IL

This article uses the examples of questions to the "Free Pint bar" (a useful discussion board forfor information people) to point out that part of information literacy is knowing how to ask questions. This is something I do cover in my first year information literacy class here, but we are going to focus on this even more next year when we are introducing another 1st year class which is going to take a very enquiry-based approach to learning Information Management. Anyway, the article is:
