The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between information literacy, commitment to change and job enthusiasm of principals and assistants of elementary schools in Malayer city. The research method was descriptive and correlational, and its statistical population included all principals and deputy principals (male and female) of elementary schools in Malayer city, totaling 120 people, who were working in elementary schools in this city in the academic year 2024-2025. Given the small size of the population, all individuals participated in the study. To collect data, the following scales were used: Yazdani Information Literacy Scale (2013), Barati et al. Commitment to Change Questionnaire (2011), and Vazirpanah Job Satisfaction Questionnaire (2012). The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation tests and SPSS version 22 software.
