[en] For several years academic librairies have been actively involved in information literacy instruction. However, the required competences are different for PhD students and in the case of the Veterinary Faculty of the University of Liège (Belgium), good Faculty-Librarian collaborations have been developed. Specific targeted courses and training sessions concerning information literacy have been officially incorporated in the PhD curriculum, with the main objective being to help PhD students to be autonomous and efficient in the elaboration of scientific publications, an essential stage of their scientific career.
