Unlike many subjects, proofreading is not a theoretical topic. It’s concrete—specific—comprised of “how to’s.” The rules and guidelines we’ll offer you are simple and practical. You’ll have a chance to check your understanding and evaluate your progress in each section of this book. Practice is the key; we’ll give you plenty of exercises along the way. We believe that people learn faster and retain information longer when they are having fun. That’s what we want for you.

Information literacy may be defined as the ability to identify a research problem, decide the kinds of information needed to tackle it, find the information efficiently, evaluate the information, and apply it to the problem at hand. Teaching Research Processes suggests a novel way in which information literacy can come within the remit of teaching faculty, supported by librarians, and reconceived as 'research processes'. The aim is to transform education from what some see as a primarily one-way knowledge communication practice, to an interactive practice involving the core research tasks of subject disciplines.
