Literacy now includes the use of a range of meaning-making resources, and manipulation of multiple modalities in diverse media devices. This paper outlines the position of the EU-funded ELINET project towards digital literacy in the contemporary age. Established in February 2014, the European Literacy Policy Network (ELINET) unifies 77 partner organisations from 28 European countries (including 24 EU member states) engaged in literacy policy-making and reading promotion in Europe. See the website (http://eli-net.eu/) for an overview of its extensive work with diverse stakeholders.} }
