Cooperation of culture studies and information science proposals for interdisciplinary research issues

Abstract

The aim of the article is to indicate the possibilities of interdisciplinary cooperation, combining the specifics of research on culture and related to information and communication. The article is also a voice in the discussion related to changes in the classification of fields of science and scientific and artistic disciplines. Selected examples of research problems functioning between culture studies, bibliology and information science have been identified and discussed. These include, for example, the culture-forming function of information and communication; changes in cultural artefacts (books and documents) in a digital network environment; the work and its relationships with recipients, and management of information about works in the communication process. Several research questions and proposals have been formulated. The article indicates the legitimacy and benefits of interdisciplinary research between culture studies and bibliology and information science.
