Abstract

The complexity of the digital environment, as an information and communication environment, determines changes in the information and communication behavior of users, in the context of the social, cultural, educational, economic activities carried out, leading to new paradigms in the field of information, documentation and research and essentially changing contemporary society in all its components.

Digital skills are essential in contemporary society, substantially influencing the educational process. It is crucial that individuals, educational institutions and organizations work together to develop these skills, thus ensuring a society better prepared for the challenges of the future. Investigating the university environment in Romania, respectively the opinions of undergraduate and master's students, we note that they prefer to use electronic resources for study and equally strongly feel (78,4%) the need to train to use digital tools and resources.
