Abstract | Prepared under a contract between UNESCO and IFLA (the International Federation of Library Associations), this modular curriculum is intended as a resource from which curricula can be constructed by individual departments of information studies to meet local needs and circumstances. Following an introductory discussion and explanation of the modules, outlines of 12 core modules are presented: (1) information in its social and communications context; (2) information users; (3) quantitative methods; (4) research methods; (5) information sources; (6) information storage and retrieval systems; (7) information services; (8) electronic data processing; (9) application of information technology; (10) telecommunications and networking in information systems; (11) management of information systems and services; and (12) economics and marketing of information. Outlines are also provided for eight elective modules: (1) design of computer-assisted information systems; (2) sectoral/subject-oriented information sources and systems; (3) planning and design of buildings and facilities for information centers and libraries; (4) online searching; (5) health and welfare library and information services; (6) agricultural library and information services; (7) audiovisual studies; and (8) printing, bookbinding and conservation. Titles of other possible elective modules are also provided, as well as objectives, content, teaching methods, comments, and a brief bibliography for each module.
