Information Literacy (CEDIBI)
CEDIBI (Center for the Development of Information Literacy and Bibliographic Research) is an initiative developed to establish an Information Literacy Program which incorporates information literacy skills throughout the curriculum at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez Campus.
