Abstract
In the modern society, maintenance of the Internet advances as social infrastructure. In such a society, as the quality of the information to circulate is various, the information literacy of the person using information is important, to ascertain the quality. In this paper, I examined "information quality professional" as an expert to send information and argued about necessary ability for it. Ability for information interpretation is needed to an information quality professional. The ability consists of "means / technology for interpretation" and "the ability to read context, and to assemble interpretation". Furthermore, the latter was subdivided to "cognition" "selectivity" "ability to constitute a sentence". In addition, in comparison with the information literacy, I pointed out that ability for information interpretation had a relation of mutual inclusion with information literacy partially. Furthermore, a process of the proficiency was important for the training of the ability for information interpretation and suggested that there was a difficult part in the measurement of the ability.
