  • Quality in Education for Information: Recent Research into Student Learning Ford, N. J. Library Education Educational Quality Professional Education Course Content Learning Student Evaluation College Students Educational Research A number of recent criticisms relating to education for library and information work are discussed. These criticisms are interpreted as centring on the level of "meaningfulness" of such education, in terms of deep critical understanding; relevance of content to working practice; and development of personal qualities additional to narrower "tradition" academic abilities. The author argues that despite the need for strong programmes of post-qualification study, and improved interaction between teachers, researchers and practitioners, a high value must be placed on good quality initial full-time education. [To mark the 25th Anniversary edition of "Education for Information", editors re-visited articles published in the inaugural issue "to look again at them through the telescopic lens of a quarter century and to ponder how much has changed and how much has remained constant in educational issues relating to information studies." This article is a reprint of EJ312275.]
