With the dramatic increase in misinformation, disinformation, and fake news, the need to teach students information literacy skills has never been more important. Dziedzic-Elliott's We Can Teach That: Information Literacy for School Librarians is a welcome and timely work that tackles this critical topic, and is particularly useful as school librarians are re-thinking what types of information literacy skills are needed as generative AI and other technologies change the information landscape. The book draws together leading school and academic librarians and library scholars who offer thought-provoking chapters that provide illustrative examples, practical strategies, activities, and other suggestions for teaching all types of information literacy (visual, media, health, technological, multicultural) to students from toddlers through to college.

We Can Teach That: Information Literacy for School Librarians is a valuable resource for school librarians at all grade levels and for school library educators. The essays provide a variety of perspectives as well as practical examples to enable school librarians to say 'yes, we can and do teach that' and to support their leadership in teaching information literacy in their schools.

We Can Teach That! is an incredibly prescient book! Learners of all ages are inundated with information of all types, even more so with the explosion of AI. It is increasingly critical that students be taught to evaluate and cite their sources. School librarians are uniquely situated to do this!

In today's society, being literate means much more than just reading and writing. It encompasses a variety of skills including visual literacy, media literacy, digital literacy, and health literacy. Being literate today means being able to critically analyze information, understand and use technology effectively, navigate diverse media landscapes, and make informed decisions about health and wellness. We Can Teach That: Information Literacy for School Librarians shows how school librarians play a crucial role in developing these literacies, guiding students to become adept at deciphering the vast amount of information they encounter daily, and preparing them for a complex, interconnected world.
