Journal Descriptions
Education for Information is a long‑standing interdisciplinary scholarly journal that bridges research, education, and practice in the field of information studies. Since its launch in 1983, the journal has provided a global forum for advancing knowledge on how information professionals are trained, how information is taught and learned, and how information practices evolve in society. Appearing quarterly, it publishes high‑quality peer‑reviewed research articles that cover broad areas of interest including information pedagogy, curriculum development, professional competencies, and the impact of digital technologies on information behaviour. The journal also includes professional practice reports, debates on policy and ethics, and critical book reviews that together illuminate key developments and challenges in the information fields. A hallmark of the journal is its interdisciplinary reach, inviting contributions from library and information science, educational theory, information systems, digital humanities, and related disciplines, encouraging researchers and practitioners to explore connections between theory and real‑world practice. By fostering rigorous scholarly debate and disseminating innovative research, Education for Information plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of information education, informing educators, students, and professionals about emerging trends and evidence‑based practices in information learning and management.
