Note(s): “Subject/field” reflects the closest alignment rather than a one-to-one equivalence. Publications that could be assigned to multiple categories were coded to a single category based on their central focus and/or explicitly stated context. “Applied” denotes domain-specific applications of information literacy concepts, frameworks or theories (e.g. health information literacy, digital information literacy and researcher information literacy)
