  • FY2021 Annual Review Narrative Survey Unit Name: the Information School Programmatic & Academic Vitality Narratives
    FY2021 Annual Review Narrative Survey Unit Name: The Information School Programmatic & Academic Vitality Narratives 1) Have you made any changes to your unit’s annual budget development process from the response provided last year? If yes, please briefly describe the changes you’ve made to your unit’s annual internal budget development process. If no, please answer with a simple, “no changes.” Word Limit: 500 No changes. <OPB inserting FY20 response, below> The iSchool’s budget process engages faculty, staff and student leaders throughout the year to development and refine growth and other strategic plan assumptions, needs and priorities. Our planning looks forward three years to ensure financial stability and maintain our ability to support current and future strategic investments and growth plans. Each step in our budget cycle includes reviewing and revising our goals, assumptions, priorities and potential budget investments list (the “wish list”) with our leaders. The typical budget cycle follows this schedule: Nov/early Dec: Establish high level goals and priorities for the next fiscal year; review/refine with leaders. Dec/Jan: Prepare initial budget plans for the next fiscal year + 3 years, to include enrollment change plans and fee-based tuition rate proposal; review with leaders; submit to the Provost and UWCC. Jan/Feb: Review/confirm current ongoing/continuing resource allocations with budget managers and key leaders; request proposals for budget changes. Jan-Apr: Monitor and adjust budget plans to align with UW policy changes, ABB and fee-based enrollment projections, salary increase authorizations and other factors. Apr/early May: Refine preliminary decisions on budget priorities and funding of internal budget proposals; review/refine with leaders.

    1. Name of the proposed degree/major Information Science 2. Home department/department-like unit and School/College Information School, College of Letters & Science 3. Mode of delivery (face-to-face, online, other-specify) Face-to-face 4. Primary faculty contact person Sunny Kim, Professor and Director, Information School [email protected] (Staff contact: Nicole Weissinger, Associate Director:[email protected]) 5. A description of the new program Information science is a field concerned with information and data, and with people’s relationships to information and data. Information science encompasses study of the gathering, organizing, storing, retrieving, dissemination, use and disuse of information and data. In today’s world, this includes the uses of computational tools needed to support all the above activities. Information science encompasses the following types of questions: • Psychological and sociological questions: How do people relate to, seek, and use (or not use) information and data? How has this varied across time and cultures? • Design questions: How can access to, or use of information and data be made rapid, effective and fair? • Features questions: What are the inherent characteristics of data or information, and what are the patterns in collections of data and information?1 The proposed iSci major provides the students with the opportunity to examine issues in the nexus of people, data, information and computing. ISci emphases the ethical, cultural, and social challenges inherent in the design and use of information technology-based solutions, and emphasizes design of systems for the good of people, organizations, and society. The proposed major will produce critical thinkers, creative innovators, and future leaders adept in the creation, management, retrieval, and curation of data and information, and skilled in the design and application of information technologies to solve problems.

  • Mapping the Information Science Domain Ofer Arazy, Stan Ruecker, Omar Rodriguez, Alejandro Giacometti, Lu Zhang, and Su Chun
    Mapping the Information Science Domain Ofer Arazy, Stan Ruecker, Omar Rodriguez, Alejandro Giacometti, Lu Zhang, and Su Chun In the scholarly community, there has been for the last fifteen years an increasing interest in interdisciplinary projects, where researchers with different disciplinary backgrounds form teams to collaborate in addressing problems that are either not clearly within a single research domain, or that can best be approached by combining a variety of approaches. However, there also remain a number of research areas where interdisciplinary approaches seem to be warranted, but scholars in single disciplines have continued to work largely in isolation from their colleagues in other domains. We focus on one specific scientific field – information science – which is investigated in various disciplines: library and archival studies, computer science, management (and specifically, management information systems), and engineering, to name just a few. Prior works in the area have discussed the disconnect between various areas within the broad field of information science, relying primarily on co‐citation techniques and content analysis. These studies concluded that although all domains within this area are focused on the concepts of information, people, and (information and communication) technologies, the disciplines remain disjunct in terms of their disciplinary recognitions and topic of research. Despite some similarities in research methodology (“research approach” and “level of analysis”) (Glass et al., 2004), there are substantial differences in terms of co‐citation patterns (Ellis et al., 1999; Sawyer & Huang, 2007), indicating the fields are distinct. Furthermore, although the research in these various areas may often appear to be similar on the surface, the contents of research are varied as well (Ellis et al., 1999).

Library information school (LIS) students without training in scientific disciplines express concerns about pursuing a career in engineering librarianship. Why don’t they get onto the science/technology (sci/tech) bandwagon? What information and inspiration are necessary to sail toward the science and engineering horizons of our profession? A successful transition from graduate student to practicing engineering librarian requires a complex combination of knowledge and skills.

K. Paul, [email protected] Abstract Information is treated as most important and valuable domain these days. There are many domains and fields which are closely related with information such as Information Science, Communication Science, Media Studies, Archival, Library Science, Information Technology, and Information Studies and so on. Hence a full-fledged association and foundation is established on such fields or more clearly on information fields (like the establishment of Information Schools / I-School caucus). The I-School has its own strength and specialization; together they share a fundamental interest in the relationships between information, people, and technology. The main aim and objective of this paper include Information Foundation and the domain surrounding by it. Paper talks about I-School organization, their main aim and objective and current activities in a brief manner.
