Description

Product Description "Library and Information Science Trends and Research: Europe", co-edited by Professor Amanda Spink and Dr. Jannica Heinström provides an understanding of the new directions in library and information science/management, education and research in Europe. The volume focuses on new research directions within the field but will also discuss curriculum changes due to the rapidly developing information world. Europe has developed substantially both socially and economically in the last ten years with a growing population and economy. The field of library and information science/management has also grown in educational and research developments as information increasingly has become a part of people's everyday social and life processes. This book is directly relevant to information scientists, information professionals and librarians, social scientists and people interested in understanding more about the trends and research in library and information science/management in the European region. Undergraduate and graduate students, academics, educators, and information professionals interested in library and information science will find this book of particular benefit. Review "How the LIS [library and information science] field survives over the next 20 years will be played out in educational and industry environments globally." Spink (formerly, information science, Loughborough U., UK) and Heinström (information studies, Abo Akademi U., Finland) thus introduce contributions from LIS academics, scholars from related fields, and information professionals who present a picture of LIS research, education, and practice trends in Europe. Contributors discuss challenges due to the multicultural/multilingual context, disciplinary differences in the identity of LIS in various countries, virtual libraries, and consequent policy decisions. Trends include working toward a common set of cataloging rules, user-generated databases, and assessments of research quality. -- Annotation ― (protoview.com)
