In 2018 the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) Educational
and Behavioral Sciences Section (EBSS) Social Work Committee was charged with developing a companion document to the ACRL
Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education as it relates to social work
education and practice. This guide is the result of a two year process to bring about a useable,
accessible companion document.
The overarching goal of creating this companion document is to clearly demonstrate where the ACRL
Framework and social work educational competencies and standards, as well as professional ethics and values,
intersect.
