You are selecting the Finished Width of each panel you would like to order. We recommend mounting your hardware at least 2-3 inches further out on each side of your opening. We recommend going even wider if you have the room. It will made the window look bigger and more dramatic.
Design Notes:
When specifying Pole Pocket Style take the width of the area you would like to cover, add 2-4 inches to each side. You will order 2 panels at that measurement. Note that a finished width of 46"-50" is 1 width of material and is 46"-50" wide when drawn flat, we recommend 200% fullness, i.e. a 50" panel will cover 25" - 30" of window and still retain soft folds when drawn shut. When a width greater than 46"-50" is requested there will be a seam where the fabric is joined to make the panel.
When specifying any of our pleat styles, French, Goblet, Parisian or Inverted take the width of the area you would like to cover, add 2-4 inches to each side and divide by 2. You will order 2 panels at that measurement. Note that a finished width of 50" is 100" (2 widths of material) pleated down to a finished width of 50". When a width greater than 25" is requested there will be a seam where the fabric is joined to make the panel.
When specifying Grommet take the width of the area you would like to cover, add 2-4 inches to each side. You will order 2 panels at that measurement. Note that a finished width of 50" is 1 width of material that's 50" wide when flat, we recommend 200% fullness, i.e.: a 50" panel will cover 25" - 30" of window and still retain soft fold when drawn shut. When a width greater than 50" is requested there will be a seam where the fabric is joined to make the panel.
You are selecting the Finished Length of each panel you would like to order. We recommend mounting your hardware at least 4-5 inches above your opening or higher if you can. Placing your rod higher will make the space look taller and more dramatic.
For CUSTOM SIZE Pole Pocket drapery panels the length you order includes the 3" pocket. Keep in mind the hardware type you will be using and where it will be mounted. If using the pocket you will measure from the top of the rod down to the floor. You will want to add in the diameter of the rod you are using to account for take up (when the fabric is ruched onto the rod the fabric will gather and "shrink" the length some). If you like your drapes a little longer you can add 1-4" called a "break" or "trouser break", add 5-8" for a more puddled look onto the floor or you can add 10"+ to achieve the over the top luxurious cloud effect onto the floor. *** Note: A Break or Puddle is not recommended for drapery that will be opened and closed regularly.
For CUSTOM SIZE French, Goblet, Parisian or Inverted pleat styles keep in mind the hardware type you will be using and where it will be mounted. If using a decorative pole and rings you will measure from the bottom of the ring to the floor. That measurement will be your finished length. If using a track system measure from the bottom of the track down to the floor. This will be your finished length. If you like your drapes a little longer you can add 1-4" called a "break" or "trouser break", add 5-8" for a more puddled look onto the floor or you can add 10"+ to achieve the over the top luxurious cloud effect onto the floor. *** Note: A Break or Puddle is not recommended for drapery that will be opened and closed regularly.
You are selecting added features of the drapery.
Lined:Panels will be made using the face fabric and then lined in a cotton fabric.
Lined & Interlined:Panels will be made using the face fabric, lined with a cotton fabric with a flannel lining in between. This will provide optimal insulation and some room darkening qualities. If using silk we always recommend using this option as it helps protect the silk and give the panels great body.
Blackout Lining:Panels will be made using the face fabric and then lined with a blackout fabric. This option is great for a bedroom or media room. Note that using blackout lining will give the drapery a stiffer hand. Using blackout lining is not recommended if you want a puddled look.
You are selecting the number of panels needed.

Redefining Information Literacy for the Networked World
17/02/2011 § 18 Comments
Please welcome another guest, April Martin!
April L Martin is a second year MLIS student at the University of Washington. Her interests include reference, preservation, anti-Googlization, oral history archives, historical research, Facebook scrabble, reading great books, Nina Simone, talking, and long walks on the beach.
One of the hot topics on the HLS wiki was information literacy — Here's April's take on redefining it.
As a fundamental of librarianship, information literacy is pretty well established and has managed to remain so through ambiguity, as in the following ALA definition: "To be information literate, a person must be able to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information." The ambiguity found in this definition allows any informational context to be incorporated or addressed without amendment.
However, traditionally, information literacy is understood to promote the development of skills to critically evaluate information in print and thus resolve issues of credibility, authority, relevance, and currency of that information. This understanding has led to several accompanying and equally important forms of literacy: visual literacy, audio/video literacy, media literacy, cyberliteracy, digital literacy, the list goes on…
Essentially, these literacies have surfaced because of the overwhelming attitude that information literacy does not specifically address the particulars necessary for competency in understanding information found in non-print formats. Likewise, the above definition stresses the "ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively" information.
But what about creation? What about collaboration? What about dissemination? We are not simply passive learners absorbing and citing the information we find. As librarians (and future librarians), we do not promote passive learning. In the age of social media, information sharing is so common and nearly effortless that anyone can be in the information creation and dissemination business which means that we can no longer only look to print publication with evaluative skills. Obviously.
Enter Transliteracy:
The concept of transliteracy was originally developed by the Transliteracies Project group at the University of California-Santa Barbara. Initially, the concept addressed online reading and ways of adding value to this experience beyond the addition of special features. Now, transliteracy is being embraced in the library world as the new way to think about information literacy for the 21st Century. The ALA Transliteracy Interest Group defines transliteracy as: "the ability to read, write, and interact across a range of platforms, tools, and media from signing and orality through handwriting, print, TV, radio, and film, to digital social networks." In a recent article for C&RL News, Tom Ipri outlined transliteracy's appropriateness to the library environment and emphasized the way transliteracy, "explores the participatory nature of new means of communicating, which breaks down barriers between academia and the wider community and calls into question standard notions of what constitutes authority by emphasizing the benefits of knowledge sharing via social networks."
This article and several subsequent discussions with fellow MLISers has led me to question transliteracy's ultimate goal: is it de-compartmentalizing scholarship and "everyday life" to legitimize information found on internet sources (like social media) or is it really just challenging the "privilege of print?" How does transliteracy intend to promote the specific evaluative skills necessary to read, write, and interact across media types to incorporate the various literacies listed above?
Enter Metaliteracy:
In the January 2011 issue of C&RL, Thomas P. Mackey and Trudi E. Jacobson introduced metaliteracy as an approach to this issue that "requires us to recognize the relationships between core information literacy competencies and emergent literacy frameworks. At the same time, however, metaliteracy is a concept that promotes active engagement with emergent technologies and learner-centered production of information." Through this conceptual approach, differences in skills, technologies, and media formats are not challenged. Instead, metaliteracy is proposed as an umbrella term where all the literacies can coexist equally while maintaining the importance of critical evaluation for each distinctly.
I must admit that my interpretation of metaliteracy comes from a much less cynical place than my interpretation of transliteracy but I am not quite ready to fully embrace either because both have the potential to be only buzzwords: relevant today; passé tomorrow.
What do you think? As MLIS students, do you think that information literacy needs to be/can be redefined to meet the rapidly evolving technology environment? Can information literacy (as a core concept) handle being retooled or is it too closely associated with print to shrug off its limitations? Should transliteracy and/or metaliteracy enter the librarian lexicon?
Editor's Note: Check out Libraries and Transliteracy for ongoing discussions on this topic as well.
Editor's Challenge: Give us your visual understanding of metaliteracy and transliteracy (chart, photo, image, sculpture, etc.)

§ 18 Responses to Redefining Information Literacy for the Networked World
juliaskinner says:
This is a great post–I love that you give useful and engaging descriptions of metaliteracy and transliteracy. I definitely agree that we need to redefine literacy as info pros, because people are exposed to so many information sources and so many formats. That being said, I don't think throwing print-based literacy out the window is the answer either: despite many arguments over whether print is dying and books will become obsolete, I think it's very possible to have and enjoy both books and digital media!
kateldh says:
As someone with academic interests in information literacy, I find it important that information literacy continue to evolve and be redefined in ways that balance and privilege critical attention to changing information environments and reflective attention to the way we speak about them.
As an instructor of information literacy, however, I've found that these theories do little to guide or develop effective information literacy instruction. Hidden amongst these discussions of literacy, trans-literacy, fill-in-the-blank-literacy, is the real need for librarians to develop pedagogies. To design curriculum. To develop a set of information literacy based best practices for our field.
I think we do a lot of redefining in this field without digging deeper and looking behind what we've said and what we do. I think it is time for a critical awareness and and systematic unpacking of the term literacy in all its iterations.
Micah Vandegrift says:
Kudos for being the first to use the word "pedagogy" on HLS! I agree that we can redefine out the wazoo (which seems to be a default postion for libraries and LIS education) but you're absolutely right that the terms need to go somewhere. Its the Theory vs. Practice argument all over again.
I'd be interested to see how, after this economic turn and increasing numbers of post-grad, interdisciplinary, even many PhDs, start to flood the LIS world, these sorts of issues will be tackled. I was encouraged to go into LIS by Dr. Wayne Wiegand for the very purpose that I had a critical studies background, and he blatantly told me that is what is needed in librarianship.
juliaskinner says:
I'd like to add a kudos to you for mentioning Dr. Wiegand here: he is an awesome mentor and uses the respect he's gained in the field to guide and encourage others. Now that's awesome pedagogy! I agree though with both of you, we need to be more critical of the changes we're making and be able to describe the whys and hows. I think this goes back to why I love the idea of librarians who also have an understanding of the research process, because it allows us to critically examine what we're doing that works (or doesn't) and allows us to go step by step and unpack the reasons behind it.

@kateldh – Just this morning, I was considering the need for librarians to do just what you say.
At first, I was very stand-offish about transliteracy, because it seemed like a buzzword with little new meanings – a repackaging of information literacy for the sake of drawing attention. I'm still figuring it all out, however.
Here's how I understand it at this point: I tend to agree with this post at Sense and Reference about the definition of transliteracy (or metaliteracy if you prefer, since it seems like adding "meta" to any term makes it trendier). He says "transliteracy only addresses the rather specific IL area of linguistic competency. That's all. Information literacy is a a general concept; transliteracy is a specific concept entailed by information literacy…Sure, we already engage in transliteracy, but by giving it a name and discussing it, we can better understand how to incorporate it into our instructional practices when we teach information literacy."
Micah Vandegrift says:
Courtney, I think April (author of this post) is arguing that Trans and Meta are in fact two different ways of approaching literacy, not interchangeable terms. Regardless, and the buzziness of the terms aside, the point is that we, and thus our patrons and users, need to develop and grow to accomodate a variety of competencies for accessing, interrogating and repurposing information that exists in a variety of formats and across a variety of platforms. Vague enough, for you?
To me this whole debate ends up moot (and I love talking about Transliteracy) when we can all agree that stuff is out there, we need to organize it, learn how to use it, and help others do the same. Call it what you will… the point is doing stuff with stuff is important, and we're good at it. amiright?
Nicole Fonsh says:
Great post April. Thank you for your definitions of transliteracy and metaliteracy. This is kind of pathetic but I don't think in my almost two years of my MLIS program we have discussed either topic, and I've taken a pretty varied assortment of classes, including user instruction where we talked about information literacy quite a bit honestly. So this seems to be another topic that I may have to go about teaching myself. But what do people think…how would you integrate these ideas into curriculum? As Micah and Kate have mentioned, perhaps this is just part of that greater idea of theory vs practice…
April Martin says:
Oh, I am so glad my post has encouraged such fruitful discussion. Kate and Micah, I think you are both absolutely right about this being a theory vs. practice issue which, of course leads to the concept vs. semantics issue.
And Nicole, we also didn't talk about this at my iSchool; well, we did but I brought it up. I think while MLIS programs are increasingly technology focused, they also try to stay true to accepted fundamentals. Even in theory-based programs like the one I am in, there isn't often enough time to address new (tangentially technology based) concepts or ideas in any sort of meaningful way beyond the superficial introduction. So, yes it is yet another thing we'll need to teach ourselves but you are interested in life-long learning, right? ;-)
And finally, @Saucurriculumlib: I am not sure transliteracy can be relegated to linguistic competency alone although I really appreciate Wilk's treatment of this convoluted topic. Thank you so much for sharing.
Brad Czerniak says:
I'm glad that students are hitting the ground running on these issues!
For the sake of self-promotion, I'd like to direct you to posts on my blog about transliteracy; especially the one where I show that Information Literacy is a dumb name for good principles, and the other that tweaks the crappy common-use definition of transliteracy.
WRT to metaliteracy: Latin-wise it should be a literacy of literacies. So, metaliteracy would be something that literacy specialists would possess (and might be something y'all are engaging in now), but would otherwise be a poor term for the practicalities of serving patrons.
Carolyn says:
Thanks for the great post! I agree with information literacy is often treated in a very print centric manner. I think we can definitely take some cues from the education field and incorporate critical literacy and pedagogy into our practices. It addresses many of the problems with our information literacy standards (ie how we focus on skills instead of info lit as an iterative process), and encourages us to remain learner centered and critical in our practices. There's a great new book out on the topic that I'm digging right now, Critical Library Instruction: implications for instructional practices, and of course Elmborg's article (2006)Critical Information Literacy: Implications for Instructional Practice are great places for uprooting what you think you know about info lit and libraries
karen weaver says:
why is it being assumed somewhere (?)above that information literacy of olden days meant "in print" only?
have i missed something…reading quickly
there have always been other types of non media even before digital/web resources etc
many library schools used to teach courses in non media
just questions as i read … definitions & perspectives? cheers, KarenW
Brian Dahlvig says:
How can IL be construed as being completely passive? The last part of the definition "ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information" sound active to me. All the questions in the italicized paragraph are answered by the verb "use."
Transliteracy and Metaliteracy are great ideas, and yes, we should teach them, but the should be used as extensions of Information Literacy, not replacements. before you can get social with the information, you need to know how to find it and how to analyze/deconstruct it, which I see as both falling under the definition of IL.
Brian Dahlvig says:
Oops. Sorry for the typos.
Ejypt says:
Not sure what redefinition actually does. Everything I've seen about transliteracy has been proffering definitions; no one's articulated any programmatic tactics for teaching it. I'm not even sure one would need a definition before being able to teach the subject, e.g. isn't transliteracy the sort of thing web designers need to know, how to juggle video, graphics, typography, various languages (programming and otherwise) in a way which communicates effectively? Right now transliteracy (and certainly metaliteracy) are just terms. Hopefully soon they'll become practices.
April Martin says:
It seems a little clarification is in order here.
Hi Karen, Because the concept of IL began in a print-only environment, acknowledgment of other literacies is often considered secondary or tacked-on. This secondary status is lamented by advocates for non-print literacies b/c, for example, evaluative skills for visual literacy often differ from those for print literacy.
And Brian, as I see it, "use" does not equal "create" and does not even address community information sharing made simple through social media.
karen weaver says:
re: my post above i should have said "non print media" instead of 'non media' thinking and typing too quickly…
I find many of these terms transliteracy for example also very vague when i read it lately in different forums/discussions becoming a new buzzword / trend of theories and practices that have already been out there
just being looked at with fresh eyes more often.
metadata still is cataloging etc old/new buzz

Coughing kids have been known to keep little ones and parents up all night. Unfortunately, the number of treatment options is slim as many over-the-counter options are not suitable for children under the age of 6. A study released in the September issue of Pediatrics magazine tested more than 250 children ages 1-5 who were experiencing nighttime coughing. The participants were given one of three types or honey or a non-honey liquid with similar consistency prior to going to bed for two consecutive nights. The study found that the children who received the honey mixture coughed less frequently, less severely and slept better through the night.
The next time your precious little ones are struggling to make it through the night because of coughing, use two teaspoons of Sue Bee Honey to soothe the throat and help everyone sleep through the night!

My oldest is 5 and will be 6 in March. He has just started school. Everything was going well and now he is have a ton of trouble. He is hitting, not listening and not doing his work. I hate picking him up everyday with a bad report. I just want him to have a good time and to listen to his teacher. Any ideas on how to help would be great.
oh wow.. sorry to hear that. My daughter isn't any where near the school age yet.. but my initial idea is maybe make a sticker chart with set rewards. For every good report he will be allowed to place a sticker on the chart and after so many stickers he will be able to choose a reward from the board and for the bad reports he will have to take a sticker away and understand that it is because of his behavior that he is further from his goal. The trick is to make him put on and take off the stickers so that he is invested in racking up as many of those stickers as possible.
The other idea that i have is the same concept only with a good report and bad report section. on the good report side it's the same as above except stickers never get taken away. on the bad report side for so many "bad" stickers there is a punishment like cleaning or loosing the tv or something unpleasant. My theory is that eventually behaving will become a habit and you will no longer need an incentive for being good. like i said this is my initial idea that i actually saw on a certain program with an awesome tough British nanny if you catch my drift. Hopefully you'll receive some other suggestions but i wish you luck with tackling this head on.
Change is hard on everyone-even good change. It sounds like he is acting out his feelings in an attempt to express them, and it's not going well. Have you asked him what is happening? What feelings can he identify? Have you asked his teachers what they think is going on? Is there a school psychologist that you and teacher can meet with as well as your son? I know this much feel really challenging and upsetting, but you will get through it and so will he.
I wanted to give you the link to the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) Parent Resource Center. This webpage has awesome info on everything kid and it's written by the experts. There is a search bar in the upper right corner and you can search for whatever you need. I went ahead and did a search for "back to school" and have that link for you below. I also pasted the link to their main page. Let me know if you need more help!
Good luck,
AAP Back to school search:
AAP Main Page:
My son was similar and I know exactly what you are going through. First of all, you need to meet with his teacher to get a better idea of what he is doing and when he is acting out. Are the expectations of the classroom a bit too rigid for him? Is he struggling with attention issues? Does he need more sensory input? Once you find out what he is doing, you can try talking to him to figure out a solution. For my son, we moved his desk closer to the front and away from a few boys that he was getting into trouble with. In addition, we had him evaluated for an attention disorder by a psychologist.He was having trouble concentrating in class and paying attention and his frustration was coming out in other ways. I hope this helps, hang in there!
I see you've already got some great advice from other posters. My sister is a preschool teacher and deals with kids who hit and act out quite a bit. She often suggests limiting tv shows that depict a lot of fighting, working on behavior coaching at home, talking about any major changes in the family and how your child feels about them, and setting up meetings with the teacher to find out what is triggering the bad behavior. Hopefully this is a phase and he grows out of it soon! Hang in there and let us know how it's going.
How is your little boy doing in school? Have things gotten better? Just wanted to check in with you!
I am so glad to say that things are a ton better at school and at home. After school one day we sat him down and had a long tolk about how we are to behave at school and at home. We told him that if he listens he will be able to get icecream in the afternoon. (it is his favorate food.) We told him that if he was good all week then he would be able to get a new car. One of the dollar ones or less. If he comes home with a bad report then he get no tv and no computer time. All of that has seemed to help. I am hopeing to lenghten the time for him being good and getting something but for now we are doing what works. His teacher has said he has done a 180. I am very proud of him. He also did not have to take a test this past friday because he had already learned it and told his teacher. Hopefully it will stay this way. A lot of prayers have been lifted up for him. :)
Such good news! I'm so glad he is changing his behavior. Seems like a smart little boy and very motivated by your reward system! All kids go through some challenging behaviors now and then - hopefully this is the end of this phase!
Oh that is wonderful news! School struggles are so difficult for everyone, but especially the moms! Us mommies take these things to heart and we hate to see our little guys struggle. I am glad he is doing well!
I like the Idea you share Brinny.. my child for now is 1 year old.
What wonderful news that things are going better! I am so glad. Please do keep us posted on how the school year progresses,
I can relate to this with my daughter. She was having problems in Kindergarden and 1st grade. Now that she is in 2nd grade she seems to be adjusting well. I have found that it just takes time for kids to adjust to the classroom setting. At home they had all the freedom in the world, and then all of the sudden they start school and they are expected to follow rules that they did not have to before. It takes time for little ones to adjust, and I am sure it will get better. Every child matures at a different time, and it just may be that he is so young right now. I hope this helps some, and keep your head up. It gets better with age. I have a 15 year old, 7 year old, 5 year old and one on the way, and I have 4 step-children who are all grown up 19, 19, 20 and 23 .
Great advice Julie-just as we are all individuals with our own experiences, feelings and reactions so are our little ones! How are things going Lovefamily6??
Thank you for asking and thank you all for the great advice. I have taken all of it to heart. Things are finaly going well. He is listening and doing well. He made all As and Bs for his report card so I am very pleased. Every now and then he will act out but for the most part he listens and he is always so pround when he comes home and says he did his work for the day. It has truely lightened the load. Thank you all again.
So glad that things are going better for you. Parenting is def. up and down. Celebrate these good moments and hang on to them. With your persistance and obvious good parenting the good moments will grow and grow! Well done,
