Project Information Literacy (PIL) is a nonprofit research institute that conducts national, ongoing studies on how adults find and use information as they progress through, and beyond, their higher education years and throughout adulthood. They work in small teams on large-scale studies using a collaborative social science research approach, mixed methods, and samples from across the United States.

Over 14 years of the “College Study,” we surveyed and interviewed nearly 21,000 U.S. college students and released 12 groundbreaking reports that examined how they interact with information resources for school, for life, for work, and most recently, for engaging with the news.

InLitAs is an international association governed by the French law. It aims to promote Information Literacy and to develop scientific research, whether fundamental or applied, in this domain.

The concept of information literacy covers several topics such as media literacy, digital literacy, data literacy as well as all forms of literacy related to information.
