- Losing the Quality Battle in Australian Education for Librarianship: A Decade on. (An Update on the Original Article by Ross Harvey, "Losing the Quality Battle in Australian Education for Librarianship". "The Australian Library Journal", 50 No. 1, 2001: 15-22.) Harvey, Ross Library Education Foreign Countries Information Science Education Educational Quality Academic Standards Library Science Quality Assurance Professional Identity Qualifications Reflection The Editor of "ALJ" has invited me to comment on my 2001 article "Losing the quality battle in Australian education for librarianship" (Harvey 2001). The article was prompted by a period I spent as a visiting professor in the Department of Information Studies at UCLA (the University of California Los Angeles) and was written while I was there. Coincidentally, I am writing this commentary while based at another top-ranked LIS school in the U.S, the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, Simmons College, Boston. I have resided outside Australia for almost all of the last four years, teaching and researching at the University of British Columbia, the University of Glasgow, and at Simmons College. I explain this because it has inevitably modified my views and has distanced me from the Australian LIS education scene.
