| Abstract: | Information schools("I-schools")have played a crucial role in the recent history of library and information science(LIS)education in the United States.This paper identifies key characteristics of i-schools and describes how they have helped address long-standing challenges in LIS education.With a focus on"People, Information,and Technology",i-schools have built strong multidisciplinary programs in research and instruction.As a result,i-schools have achieved increased stature and relevance,cross-disciplinary partnerships,increased student enrollment,and stronger financial standing.The i-school model also has relevance outside the U.S.,as can be seen in i-school models which are emerging in China,India,Japan,Singapore,and Germany.12 refs. |
