Stevens-German Library, Hartwick College President Barack Obama has proclaimed October 2009 National Information Literacy Awareness Month, stating:

"Though we may know how to find the information we need, we must also know how to evaluate it. Over the past decade, we have seen a crisis... of authenticity emerge. We now live in a world where anyone can publish... an opinion or perspective, whether true or not, and have that opinion amplified within the information marketplace. At the same time, Americans have unprecedented access to the diverse and independent sources of information, as well as institutions such as libraries and universities, that can help separate truth from fiction and signal from noise."
