COVID-19 has changed a lot of our lives, study and work ways and made us depend more on IT. At the same time, COVID-19 has exposed digital divide problems. User education and development of digital literacy are important missions of worldwide libraries, no matter if they are academic, special, school or public libraries. As librarians/educators, how can we face these changes and develop digital literacy for library users, by library user education and taking advantage of easy to use IT tools such as VR, drones and digital humanities tools.
Therefore, I have developed a research project named “Developing of digital literacy with libraries and digital technologies from an international perspective”. The aims of this research are to develop a learning model to improve the digital literacy of library users and to develop research partnerships with various libraries.
