The above answer is incorrect. Library and Information Science is the general name for the course of study that leads to becoming a librarian in one of today's modern libraries. That is because more and more information is no longer found just in books, so the people who staff the reference desk learn to become experts at doing searches in computer data bases to track down virtually anything you need to know.
