Abstract
The survey that was conducted in the past 2 years focuses on information literacy skills of students and other medical staff at medical faculties at Charles University (MF CU) in the Czech Republic. The research objective is to find out how medical and non-medical students and other staff look for information in order to educate themselves, how they find relevant information on the Internet or in specialized electronic information resources available at their faculty.
The second part of the survey focuses on the courses the students would like to see in various areas of information literacy, what their opinion is about the core course "Introduction to Scientific Work", whether they prefer elearning types of courses over lectures and seminars, etc. The conclusion pays attention to the use of WikiLectures (WikiSkripta) and social media.
The research using a method of questionnaire verifies 4 hypotheses; most of them was confirmed. The results of this survey should bring more attention to discussion about urgency and necessity of including information literacy into compulsory curriculum at medical faculties.
