Abstract
The total number of UK information scientists with ex amined IS qualifications is estimated at 1300. Of these about two thirds trained at The City University. In a spectrum of jobs ranging from librarianship through IS to IT the proportion of non print information handled increases to 100% and is seen as an important differentiating characteristic for the three areas. The new part-time M.Sc. in Information Systems and Technol ogy offered at The City University is envisaged as filling a gap between existing IS and IT courses.Keywords
