ABSTRACT: Taking the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as an example, this study focuses on developing university English teaching-research teams’ information literacy. Using a mixed-method approach of questionnaires and interviews, this study systematically assesses the current status of the teams’ information literacy in the region. This study also proposes a three-level structural model of regional context, team mechanisms, and teachers’ information literacy, along with a development path and targeted optimization strategies for enhancing information literacy. This study thus provides theoretical and practical support for promoting the informatization of education in regional universities.
