摘要：

Information literacy (IL) on the workplace is important for the success of competitive organizations. Despite its importance, many organizations in developing countries lack this critical skill. This paper uses secondary data from studies showing why IL is lacking in Tunisia. These studies reveal that because of a lack of IL skills, organizations were not able to engage in Environmental Scanning (ES) activities to collect anticipative information from their competitive environment, make sense of them and generate new knowledge to be innovative and competitive. This paper proposes a conceptual framework for the connection of IL with ES and Knowledge Management (KM) and recommends an IL model taking in account the actual urgent needs and the social and cultural aspects of the country to be implemented.
