2005SummerQ1

Question #1
There is some controversy in the profession about the tension between library science and information science as seen in the curriculum of LIS programs. Many librarians feel that there is too much emphasis on information technology and information science and not enough emphasis on the basics of library service. Identify and discuss the similarities and differences between a library school and an information school with some focus on what all information professionals need to know and do and what might be specific to library service.
