Library Science
Library Science is an interdisciplinary field focused on the organization, management, preservation, and dissemination of information resources, particularly in libraries and other information institutions. It involves principles of cataloging, classification, information retrieval, and user services to facilitate access to knowledge. The field has evolved with digital technologies to include digital libraries, information architecture, and data management.
Developers should learn Library Science concepts when working on projects involving information organization, search systems, or digital archives, as it provides foundational knowledge for structuring data effectively. It is particularly useful for roles in content management systems, library software development, or information retrieval applications, where understanding metadata standards and user-centric design is critical.
