In an increasingly globalized world, social justice issues dominate the news. Libraries are often viewed as places where social justice ideals are upheld and promoted. This paper uses a content analysis methodology of 10 North American library and information science program websites to discover how social justice education is marketed to potential students through an examination of open access course descriptions, mission statements, and core learning objectives where available. Findings indicate that social justice is embedded in library and information science programs, but there are limited opportunities for prospective students to seek out these courses due to a lack of open access course descriptions and mission statements and shortage of integration in required courses. If library and information science educators want to attract future librarians with strong social justice agendas, then the promotional materials will need to be more explicit in regards to how these programs can aid students in building a social justice mindset.

图书馆科学项目中的社会正义:一种内容分析方法

在日益全球化的世界中,社会正义问题占据了新闻的主导地位。图书馆通常被视为维护和促进社会正义理想的地方。本文使用 10 个北美图书馆和信息科学计划网站的内容分析方法,通过检查开放获取课程描述、使命陈述和可用的核心学习目标,来发现如何向潜在学生推销社会正义教育。调查结果表明,社会正义嵌入在图书馆和信息科学课程中,但由于缺乏开放获取的课程描述和使命陈述以及必修课程的整合不足,潜在学生寻找这些课程的机会有限。
