An
information literate society enjoys advantages with respect to
national, economic, and human development. Electronic-based interaction
now sustains and support important dialogues in national and international
settings. Participation in the Internet community sustains an
informed public. The ability to connect with people from all over
the world expands the idea of the global village and enhances
one's understanding of the diversity of customs, beliefs, and
culture, globally. It is accurate to state that any part of the
world that is not accessing these technologies will not be a participant
in the global development of a world preparing for the twenty-first
century.
