a little bit about my research.
The Future of LIS Education (Fall 2015 GSLIS Intersections Magazine)
http://www.lis.illinois.edu/articles/2016/01/future-lis-education
In a society where makerspaces, Google, and smartphones proliferate, people don’t interact with information, technology, or libraries the way they used to. The digital world influences how we live, work, learn, and play, which in turn alters our information needs and expectations. For decades, library and information science (LIS) professionals have been leading the way in understanding the use of information. The roles of LIS professionals are evolving along with the information landscape, but how will educating these professionals evolve? What is ahead for the future of LIS education?
