Strategies to Drive Successful Infopreneurship among Library Science Students

Abstract

This paper extends and elaborates on the strategies to encourage successful infopreneurship among library science students. Upon completing the paper, it adapted the literature analysis of recent literature regarding infopreneurship and entrepreneurship strategies. As a result, five strategies can help library science students succeed in infopreneurship, including education and training, creativity and innovation, developing a supply chain system, networking and risk-taking. Conjunctionally, there is room for improvement in lieu of infopreneurship strategies in the long run by manipulating the education sector effectively to transform the misguided stigma of infopreneurship and evoke the acceptance of infopreneurship as a whole.
