• The paper presents the results of a survey on information competence of university teachers and heads of university divisions. The aim of the survey was to discuss the main competences of ICT literacy: ability to use modern information and communication technologies, possession of information skills (information literacy) and managerial competence. The results make it possible to assume that the majority of respondents try to improve their qualifications through learning all their lives. One way to improve one's skills is to gain ICT competence. The analysis of the results of the survey shows that many respondents would like to attend a course on computer literacy and free of charge. Modern education content is directly associated with up-to-date informational technologies, the last ones making more and more influence on education methods and implementation The results also show that teachers and division heads try to enhance their information literacy competence by making use of various forms of learning. In trying to achieve this they use both the traditional ways of learning and getting information as well as modern and up-to-date ways. The majority of respondents (teachers and division heads) have managerial skills which allow them to get and manage information and apply it in their professional activities. The research revealed the information sources being different. However, the students commonly visit the library of their higher school. The libraries of other higher schools are visited rarely (56 percents) as well as public libraries (52 percents).
