Despite these transformations, many library education programs appear reluctant to adequately address these changes. This study investigates the Library and Information Science (LIS) education program at OsloMet University in Norway, aiming to explore its evolving trajectory and trends in relation to the labor market's needs and demands. To achieve this, an ethnographic qualitative research method was employed, with data collected through structured face-to-face interviews with key informants and unstructured two weeks of conversation with academic staff from the Department of Archivists, Library, and Information Science at OsloMet University. The findings revealed significant changes and numerous challenges in the alignment of the LIS education program with labor market requirements. The study concludes with several recommendations, including the need for greater collaboration, the internationalization of the LIS education program, continuous education, and the importance of embracing change.
