ABSTRACT

Affected by the subject characteristics, research direction and other factors, the frequency of humanities and social science students to contact and use complex information data and technology is objectively insufficient, thus the information literacy is relatively weak. In the information age, the construction of new liberal arts puts forward higher requirements for the information literacy of humanities and social science students. Based on the academic perspective which is closer to university learning, this paper adopts quantitative and qualitative research methods to explore the external and internal factors affecting the information literacy of humanities and social science undergraduates, and puts forward suggestions on cultivating their academic information literacy.
