Information Science Education Leadership Literature Reviews Educational Research Meta Analysis Concept Teaching Ambiguity (Context) Definitions Leadership Qualities Leadership Styles Instructional Leadership Organizational Change Library Administration Librarians Transformational Leadership Skill Analysis Administrator Education Public Libraries Research Libraries Generational Differences Mentors Educational Opportunities Course Content College Programs Leadership is an often-misunderstood word, especially in the context of libraries. With multiple definitions for the word "leadership" and vast numbers of leadership styles, it can be difficult to identity what exactly is meant when discussing library leadership. This literature review brings together 10 years of scholarly research on leadership in the library as it relates to LIS education. Through a close evaluation of this literature, a more holistic understanding of "leadership" as a concept in LIS education can be better understood. Several topics are highlighted and discussed including the ambiguity in definitions of "leadership", the qualities of library leaders, leadership in LIS curriculum, library leadership and organization change, and library leadership and new librarians. For this review, the definition of LIS curriculum includes professional association leadership programs. Closing this literature review are recommendations for incorporating leadership education and mentorship opportunities into MLIS programs.
