This study redefines information literacy (IL) and recommends its contents and media (platforms). Redefinition of IL was based on concepts such as 'Information Literacy 2.0', 'Social Context', 'Metaliteracy', 'Transliteracy', 'Social Media Literacy' and related researches. 'Social Relationship', 'Media Convergence', 'Critical and Evaluative Insight on Information' was extracted by major contents of new IL. To determine program methods, mass media's 'ubiquity' was applied to the study. Some social statistics reports proved that ubiquity of social media is quite high. Finally, proposed empirical study of IL using social media by follow-up study.

Metaliteracy is a new framework that reframes information literacy. Metaliteracy is distinguished from information literacy through the intruduction of postmodernism, social constructivism and metacognition. However it has been not examined whether metaliteracy studies reflect the conceptual differences. Therefore, The purpose of the study is to observe research trends of metaliteracy on the difference from information literacy. In the study, literature reviews were conducted, and frequency analysis and knowledge network analysis(co-occurrence and bibliographic coupling) were conducted for 80 metaliteracy studies. The results of the study are as follows. As a result of co-occurrence analysis, metacognition(frequency 1st) and skills(degree centrality 1st, closeness centrality 1st, betweenness centrality 1st) appeared. Since metaliteracy criticizes skill-based information literacy, the result suggests that the concepts of information literacy and metaliteracy are mixed. On the other hand, as a result of bibliographic coupling analysis, studies with high bibliographic coupling explain the difference between information literacy and metaliteracy through metacognition.
