Difficulties defining LIS
“The question, ‘What is library and information science?’
does not elicit responses লུ
A multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary or
monodisciplinary field?
The Swedish researcher Emin Tengström (1993)
[11] described cross-disciplinary research as a process,
not a state or structure. লུ
A more recent study revealed that 31% of the papers
published in 31 LIS journals from 2007 through 2012
were by authors in academic departments of library and
information science লུ
, and the other natural
sciences (7%) were also represented. Nearly one-quarter
of the papers in the 31 journals were by practicing
librarians, and 6% were by others in non-academic (e.g.,
corporate) positions.[13]
