✦ Synopsis

Information

is needed by a variety of users for various purposes in private and public enterprises.

Colleges and universities help meet this need by conducting research and by

The relevant education and research is provided in a fragmented manner by these institutions through business, computer science, and other programs (including library science, communication, and engineering). Each program provides partial, but not complete and integrated, information science education and research. This paper examines the various programs, defines the educational and research gaps, and proposes organizational changes that may streamline the educational and research process.
