Abstract	This research examines the postgraduate theses on the concept of information literacy from various perspectives. In this study, which was conducted within the framework of a qualitative research approach, document analysis was used for data collection. Within the scope of the study, "information literacy" was written as a keyword in the database of the Council of Higher Education (YÖK) National Thesis Center and scanned electronically and (f=33) postgraduate theses published in Turkey with "information literacy" in their titles were reached. In the study, theses were analyzed by content analysis in terms of type, year, language, university, affiliated institute, department, research method/approach, study group/participants, and thesis advisor titles. Because of the research, it has been determined that there are more master's theses than doctoral theses and that master's theses are mostly done in state universities. It has been determined that the number of postgraduate theses in 2019 is higher than in other years, the most common title for faculty members who are thesis managers is "professor doctor," according to gender, women have prepared (f=21) theses, and men have prepared (f=12) theses. It has been determined that most of the "survey method" studies are conducted in postgraduate studies, most studies are conducted with "students" and most studies are conducted in "Hacettepe University." Additionally, it has been determined that since 2018, the number of postgraduate theses using the concept of "information literacy" has increased, most of the research is done in the "institutes of educational sciences" of universities, and most of the postgraduate theses are prepared in the "Information and Document Management Department." It has been determined that the language of the theses is Turkish except for 1 (one) study. According to the results of the research, it was determined that the "survey method/quantitative studies" method was used the most. [For the full proceedings, see ED630948.] (As Provided).
