Abstract
This paper intends to discuss critically the pedagogical experience of developing and implementing a sustainability literacy approach within the Master of Information Management and Curation’s curricula at Universidade NOVA de Lisboa (2018–2019) addressing student’s epistemological beliefs. It pursues two objectives: (1) to identify the relevant key competences in sustainability literacy and, (2) to synthesize the transition from competencies to learning objectives/outcomes linked to information literacy. Qualitative methodologies have been used in this study to investigate learning impacts, using a narrative approach to provide access to beliefs and the meaning students ascribe to specific pedagogical experiences. The main outcomes emphasize that this approach prepares students for sustainability intervention areas: (1) information literacy trainers/facilitators for internal and/or external audiences; (2) advocacy – evidence gathering and promotion of information services contribution to sustainable development; (3) Research on Sustainable Information Behaviour (SIB) and greening libraries to embed the concept of sustainability into our everyday life information practice.
