In the ever-evolving landscape of information technology within library and information science, scholars often find themselves navigating a complex web of diverse research areas. The broad spectrum of topics, ranging from digital libraries to artificial intelligence, poses a significant challenge for academic scholars seeking a comprehensive understanding of the field's intricacies. The absence of a consolidated resource tailored to the specific needs of graduate students, professors, and practitioners further exacerbates this issue. Multidisciplinary Approach to Information Technology in Library and Information Science addresses the pressing challenges faced by scholars in the realm of library and information science. This reference handbook serves as a beacon, illuminating the multifaceted interactions and impacts of technologies on information resources. This book delves into the ethical, legal, and social implications of information technology across diverse contexts – libraries, information centers, archives, museums, education, business, government, and healthcare.
