The Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) published the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education that is organized under six concepts:

• Authority Is Constructed and Contextual
• Information Creation as a Process
• Information Has Value
• Research as Inquiry
• Scholarship as Conversation
• Searching as Strategic Exploration

In addition to the overarching Framework, there are Information Literacy Competency Standards for Nursing.
