Abstract:
As the new force among university faculties,the young faculties are the backbone of teaching and research activities in universities and the main information users concerned for information access.To understand the actual condition of information literacy of young faculties in Peking University Health Science Center and grasp their difficulties in getting access to information,this study analyses the information literacy of young faculties through investigating the status quo of their information capabilities,gathering their suggestions and opinions to enhance information capabilities and retrieval tests conducted among small-scale young faculties.The survey results show that 72％ of young faculties don't know or know little about the four biomedical literature retrieval databases and 47％ of them knowing nothing about CALIS.This suggests we should take measures to promote the information literacy of young faculties.
