Abstract:
In an era of evolving information landscapes, where emerging technologies and dwindling budget allocation are increasingly challenging, librarians have found themselves in unfamiliar territory. This study investigates the development of business competencies among librarians by analyzing the Library and Information Science (LIS) program at Eötvös Loránd University. Using a literature analysis method, the study offers insights into the alignment of the curriculum with emerging industry trends and needs. The findings contribute to the ongoing discourse on the role of business expertise in library and information science education, with potential implications for curriculum enhancement to ensure that future librarians are well-prepared to excel in diverse professional contexts.
