A Mixed-Methods Study of the Effectiveness of Information Literacy Education in Academic Libraries in the AI Era

Title:A Mixed-Methods Study of the Effectiveness of Information Literacy Education in Academic Libraries in the AI EraSupporting data for: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Effectiveness of Information Literacy Education in Academic Libraries in the AI Era Description:This dataset contains the supplementary materials supporting the findings of the study titled above. It includes all files necessary to replicate the quantitative analyses reported in the manuscript, specifically the structural equation modeling (SEM) conducted using AMOS. Content: Covariance_Matrix.txt - The covariance/correlation matrix used as input for the SEM analysis. The order of variables corresponds exactly to the observed variables in the accompanying AMOS model file. SEM.amw - The AMOS model file specifying the structural paths and measurement model. SEM.AmosOutput - The full AMOS output text file containing all parameter estimates, standard errors, fit indices, and other statistical results. CFA.amw & CFA.AmosOutput - The AMOS model file and output for the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the measurement scales. README2.txt - A plain text file providing detailed instructions on file usage and variable order. Methodology:The data were collected via a questionnaire survey from 432 university students, faculty members, and librarians in China between November and December 2025. The SEM was performed using IBM SPSS AMOS 29.0. The measurement scales demonstrated satisfactory reliability and validity, as reported in the manuscript. Usage Notes:To replicate the analysis, open the SEM.amw file in AMOS and load the Covariance_Matrix.txt as the data source. All files are provided in plain text or native AMOS format for maximum compatibility. Contact:For any questions regarding this dataset, please contact the corresponding author at [e-mail].
