The incorporation of epistemology can provide LIS students with more…

Bird, Nora J.; Crumpton, Michael A. – Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, 2014
The focus of literature on the role of internship has been on whether and how such activity benefits the student. A model is proposed that examines what happens for both the practitioner supervisor and the LIS educator during an internship experience. Is it possible that all participants learn from the experience and how can that learning be…
