The abiblity to find, critically evaluate and use information in a conscious and responsible way is a skill that is increasingly important in tje high paced flow of digital information. This belongs to the school librarian's area of expertise and efforts are being made to involve school librarians to a greater degree when it comes to the teaching of such competencies. This study aims to examine how education in media and information literacy (MIL) is conducted in Swedish cumpulsory school and through this gain knowledge on the collaboration between teachers and school librarians within the topic of MIL. This was done by conducting interviews with five separate school librarians. The results was then alalyzed using Montiel-Overalls theory Teacher and librarian collaboration, which allowed the depth of the collaboration to be measured. The findings show that school librarians are used as a pedagogical resource in the classroom instructing students in MIL. The collavoration between teachers and the school librarians taking part in this study was for the most part to give the librarian insight into the teachers content area to be able to plan the MIL-instruction around given the content area. This made MIL to be mostly taught separately rather than integrated into the content area. This divide can ble explained by a lack of time to co-plan and fully integrate MIL in the curriculum as well. This is also what keeps the collaboration between the professions to reach the deeper levels of collaboration in Montiel-Overalls model.
