什么是图书馆学?
图书馆学(library science)是研究图书馆的发生发展、组织管理,以及图书馆工作规律的科学。
这是一个相对冷门的专业,它一方面与一些学科在研究对象和研究内容上交叉重复,在历史渊源、现实状况和未来发展中,都有着同族的关系;另一方面,图书馆学利用其他学科的理论和方法来解决自身的理论与实践问题,相互之间存在着应用的关系。
和图书馆学有同族关系的学科主要是档案学、情报学、文献学和目录学、信息管理等。
主要课程:图书馆学基础、图书馆管理、信息管理概论、信息用户研究、文献资源建设、文献分类法、文献编目、人文社会科学文献检索、科技文献检索、咨询与决策等。
就业方向:大企事业单位、IT行业、新闻出版部门、大专院校、医院及有关研究机构、图书馆、档案馆、博物馆就职,从事信息管理和开发工作。
