SOCIAL EPISTEMOLOGY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE
Languages of publication
Abstracts
The author recalls Jesse Shera’s concept of a social epistemology. She discusses the need of its modification, referring to current works of social sciences, in particular enrichment of the original concept with an anthropological element, what is reasoned in an analysis of science as a “social good practice”. Discussion on social epistemology’s application in developing theoretical framework of information science is preceded by reflections on poor relations of qualified LIS research with library and information practice.
