Abstract

Changes in the operating environment of information professionals have significant implications for library and information science education. The current situation requires more than the tinkering, quick fixes, and incremental changes that have generally typified the evolution of professional education. Academic programs must respond to emerging trends in the field, consider innovative thinking and ideas advanced by researchers and practitioners, and anticipate new models of service delivery. Professional education needs to embody and enact the concepts and principles that are gaining traction in all sectors of our profession. The information curriculum thus needs to be blended, integrated, embedded, collaborative, and participatory.
