The Organization of Information, Fifth Edition

Abstract

Now in its fifth edition, The Organization of Information has long been a mainstay of library and
information science (LIS) education. This latest edition provides numerous much-needed updates and
additions as the information landscape has changed drastically since the release of the fourth edition
in 2018. Changes made in this edition are outlined in the preface and include an updated chapter
structure, additional figures and vocabulary definitions, new discussion questions at the end of each
chapter, and many content additions. Daniel Joudrey, who co-authored the third and fourth editions,
was assisted by Emily Baldoni in the fifth edition
