Abstract
The iSchools represent an international community of over 130 university faculties. They have a shared interest in research and teaching about information. The findings reported here provide insight into the perspectives and visions of the deans and directors of 75 iSchools. Findings show that (1) attention to people, information, and technology represents shared values; and (2) the global identity of the community blends diversity and inclusiveness. The diversity and inclusiveness of the iSchools requires balancing academic traditions with innovations. The current leaders use this balance to the community's identity as well as Information Science scholarship as a discipline.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST) is a leading international forum for peer-reviewed research in information science. For more than half a century, JASIST has provided intellectual leadership by publishing original research that focuses on the production, discovery, recording, storage, representation, retrieval, presentation, manipulation, dissemination, use, and evaluation of information and on the tools and techniques associated with these processes.
The Journal welcomes rigorous work of an empirical, experimental, ethnographic, conceptual, historical, socio-technical, policy-analytic, or critical-theoretical nature. JASIST also commissions in-depth review articles (“Advances in Information Science”) and reviews of print and other media.
