摘要：The rapid change of information and technology implies language teacher preservice trainees’ permanent education on Information literacy in order to answer to the needs of modern education. Information literacy as a set of abilities needed to recognize, locate, evaluate and effectively use needed information is extremely important in all fields of education, especially in language areas since many researches have shown that language teachers often enter the classroom without necessary Information literacy skills. For this reason, this research has been conducted trying to get insight into Croatian language teacher pre-service trainees’ habits of using online sources, the frequency of using online sources and their attitudes towards educating their future language students on Information literacy. The results are analysed and compared to a similar research conducted among Croatian students of English for Specific Purposes. Although conducted on a small-scale research, the study showed high self-assessment of Information literacy among the participants but also the awareness of the importance of being educated at least basics on Information literacy. The study also showed that almost 1/3 of the participants still don’t feel ready to take some responsibility in the process of developing strategies among their future pupils in finding relevant and quality information.
