Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
Rooted in posing the key question ""how do the activities of the information literacy community fulfil the characteristics of a discipline?"" this handbook provides a new approach to framing information literacy as a soft applied discipline. This book will highlight how information literacy fulfils the characteristics of an academic discipline and will showcase current and historical scholarly activities, the body of information literacy research, and the theoretical and methodological work undertaken by the community. This handbook aims to provide a richer understanding of the nature of information literacy and its interplay in disciplines, in order to support the advancement of interdisciplinary research that explores how information is used in disciplinary settings from multiple perspectives. Chapters cover topics such as
- communication channels that facilitate interactions between researchers and educators;
- an overview of the theories and methodologies used by the information literacy community; and
- a description of the ethical values employed and respected by the community.
