Abstract

Industry 4.0 contributes to the increase in technological production and the use of environmental resources. Because of that, researchers need to discuss circular economy issues in the context of I4.0. To understand the circular economy, people need to know how to access, evaluate, and use the information (information literacy). The purpose of this chapter is to discuss how information literacy has been studied for the development of the circular economy. The methodology implies a review of the literature on circular economy, information literacy, and Industry 4.0. Subsequently, the document connects the information literacy and BNQ21000 standard (Québec) focusing on sustainability. The review showed that there are only a few documents that analyze the circular economy in the context of Industry 4.0. In addition, the information literacy needs to be studied in the circular economy and Industry 4.0 so that managers, students, and researchers can contribute to that revolution in a critical and sustainable way.
