Abstract
As a
result of the growing impact of information and communication technologies
(ICT) or many parts of life, including education, library and information
science (LIS) education has been forced to incorporate e-learning into its
curriculum. Due to advancements in ICTs, the curriculum of LIS schools around
the world has certainly changed drastically in the recent Jew years. Blended
teaming is becoming more popular as a result of advancements in and widespread
use of information and communication technology (ICT) in education, as well as
the present generation of technology-savvy students in higher education
institutions. It has been found to be useful in boosting educational
facilities' teaching and learning processes. The article looked at how to use
technology to improve teaching and learning in LIS education and training, as
well as questioning the purpose of current teaching and Leaming approaches. The
solutions needed to make blended learning methodologies more accessible,
particularly in LJS education, are also explored. In addition, the paper looked
at practical approaches to ensuring a beneficial blended learning experience
for students, as well as the roles academic librarians play in the
ever-evolving sophisticated learning environment, pointing out that
insufficient funds, unskilled manpower, and librarian resistance to change are
some of the challenges that can stymie effective blended learning
implementation. Finally, academic librarians should be intentional in their
skill acquisition so that they can play significant and vital roles in the
complex learning environment that is constantly growing. Keywords: Academic
libraries, Academic librarians, Blended Learning, Library and Information
Science Education.
