In today’s fast-paced information era, literacy skills are becoming increasingly crucial, especially for those aspiring to be involved in journalism. This drives the need for better literacy so that recipients of information can be more critical in receiving information. Mahasantri engages in journalistic activities, but the obstacles experienced by them in creating journalistic works relate to finding information and not understanding how to determine the theme and material of journalistic works. Based on these facts, a measurement of information literacy of Mahasantri in producing journalistic works is needed using the empowering 8 model. This research method uses a descriptive quantitative approach with a sample of 265 respondents. It aims to determine the information literacy of Mahasantri in producing journalistic works using this model. It shows that Mahasantri have an understanding of information literacy in producing journalistic works in terms of identification, exploration, selection, organization, creation, presentation, assessment, and application with an average score of 2.86.
