In quantitative terms, this research revealed the characteristics and teaching goals of LIS instructors, the similarities of librarian certification courses, and the overlap with instructors of those courses. Also, an analysis of freeform question responses about LIS education revealed the instructor’s varied thoughts on LIS education and also revealed awareness of problems related to profession and curriculum issues and education goals.<br />3rd-6th April, 2006 at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
