The Association for Library and Information Science Education (ALISE) (pronounced "Ah-lease") promotes education for the information professions internationally through engagement, advocacy and research.
ALISE is a non-profit professional association for faculty, staff, and students in the library and information sciences and allied disciplines.[2]
History
ALISE is the successor organization to the Association of American Library Schools (AALS), which was founded in 1900.[3] AALS replaced the American Library Association (ALA) Roundtable of Library School Instructors (1911–1915) but was not affiliated with the American Library Association until 1953.[4] Organizationally, AALS and ALA had many connections, especially in the first 30 years of AALS's existence.[5] Donald G. Davis traced the efforts within ALA for the improvement of library education.[6]
Journal of Education for Library and Information Science (JELIS)
Since 1960, ALISE has published the peer-reviewed scholarly publication, Journal of Education for Library and Information Science. JELIS serves as a primary source of research about issues pertinent to library and information science educators and scholars.[7]
