ABSTRACT: In today’s digital environment, knowing how to use digital information is important for learning, doing research, and doing well in school. This study investigates the degree of digital information literacy among postgraduate students at Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna University of Uttarakhand. The study seeks to examine students’ search, assessment, and ethical management of digital resources for academic objectives. A standardized questionnaire was given to a representative sample of postgraduate students from different faculties.
