[Purpose/significance] ssociation of College & Research Libraries (ACRL) published Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education(official document) in February 2015. ACRL suggests the Frameworks should be used pairs with the Standards in order to keep exploring the new dynamic information ecosystem. The author studied this document and expect to provide some references to ILE in domestic universities.[Method/process] Studied the theoretical basis and characteristics of each frame, and then analyzed its creative concepts and the facing problems currently. On the above basis rethought the ILE actions in the practice context.[Result/conclusion] The author believe that IEL should focus on the affective component among information activities, be able to guide the actions in collaborative cyber-spaces, and develop students' critical thinking by emphasize the metacognition dimensions. In addition to above, the author also look into three main problems the Frameworks facing currently, including the debates around unsetting the Standards, libraries needing time to digest the Framework, and the feasibility of the Framework to be improved.
