Description
Australian Library and Information Studies (LIS) education has experienced many changes in recent years and the University of New South Wales School of Information Systems, Technology and Management has been keen to document some of them. A 1999 study investigated several areas, gathering data on school closures, amalgamations and organisational positioning as well as graduation rates and staff numbers. (1) It did not look at change in programs though this was known to have occurred. This study investigated LIS professional education program structure and content from 1991 to 2003. During this time there was substantial change following on from the 1988 Federal Government (Dawkins) tertiary education review and the introduction of the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) in 1989. Additional drivers for change included changing client demand, innovations in information technology and the desire of LIS educators to cater to a wider information management marketplace than the traditional one.
