Inhaltsangabe

What is Information Science? This comprehensive book answers this key question and explains how information science differs from data science and library science. Using a range of practical examples, the book explores how information science cuts across disciplines and integrates a range of information into a coherent whole. Starting with a historical overview of information science, subsequent chapters explore

  • communication tools;
  • information integrity and behavior;
  • artificial intelligence (AI) and data science;
  • information retrieval, curation, and non-verbal information; and
  • information in technology, education, and politics.
