Abstract [en]

This entry is organized into several sections, each exploring significant facets of the iSchool Movement and its influence on LIS education. We commence by tracing the origins and evolution of the iSchool Movement, followed by an examination of the evolving landscape of iSchool membership. Subsequently, we delve into the profound impact of the iSchool Movement on LIS Education, highlighting its transformative effects. The discussion then shifts to the collaborative efforts of iSchools with other disciplines, underscoring the interdisciplinary nature of contemporary information science education. Further, we discuss the repercussions of the iSchool Movement on the job market, elucidating the changing dynamics and emerging opportunities. Addressing a pertinent issue, we explore the evolving identity and research culture within iSchools, reflecting on challenges and prospects. To offer diverse perspectives, we invited authors from various regions to reflect on the global impact of iSchools. The content of this entry draws primarily from interviews with key figures deeply involved in the US iSchool movement. Supplementary insights from select current deans enrich the narrative, all compiled by the main author.
