What is Information Science? This comprehensive book answers this key question and explains how information science differs from data science and library science.
Using a range of practical examples, the book explores how information science cuts across disciplines and integrates a range of information into a coherent whole. Starting with a historical overview of information science, subsequent chapters explore:
communication tools
information integrity and behaviour
artificial intelligence and data science
information retrieval, curation and non-verbal information
information in technology, education and politics.
A core text for those teaching library and information science as well as practising librarians or those working in information and communication fields, Information Science is an authoritative and subject-defining publication.
Michael Seadle has been a Professor at the Berlin School of Library and Information Science at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, was Dean of Humanities, and was Executive Director of the international iSchools organisation. He has previously published The Measurement of Information Integrity, Quantifying Research Integrity and Educating the Profession: 40 Years of the IFLA Section on Education and Training.
