In the age of translation professionalization, information literacy has become an increasingly essential re- quirement for professional translators. This paper investigates the information needs of professional translators, inter- prets the concept of information literacy for translators based upon relevant studies on information literacy and transla- tion competence, constructs a systematic model, and further discusses the pedagogical significance of information lit- eracy for translators. It is suggested that information literacy constitute a metaliteracy for professional translators to succeed in the translation industry, and that the goal of translation technology teaching be upgraded from technology competence training to information literacy development.
