Library and information science

Library and information science(s) or studies (LIS)^[1]^[2] is an interdisciplinary field of study that deals generally with organization, access, collection, and regulation of information, whether in physical or digital forms.^[3]

Many consider the two original disciplines, library science and information science, to be separate fields.^[4]^[5] However, it is common today to use the terms synonymously or to drop the term "library" and to speak about information departments or information schools (iSchools).^[6] There have also been attempts to revive the concept of documentation and to speak of Library, information and documentation studies (or science).^[7] The organization of information and information resources is one of the fundamental aspects of LIS.^[3]^[8]
