Blaise Cronin (born 1949) is an Irish-American information scientist and bibliometrician.
 He is Rudy Professor Emeritus of Information Science at Indiana University, Bloomington, where he was Dean of the School of Library and Information Science for seventeen years.

The Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) is the master's degree that is required for most professional librarian positions in the United States and Canada.
 The MLIS is a relatively recent degree; an older and still common degree designation for librarians to acquire is the Master of Library Science (MLS), or Master of Science in Library Science (MSLS) degree.
 According to the American Library Association (ALA), "The master’s degree in library and information studies is frequently referred to as the MLS; however, ALA-accredited degrees have various names such as Master of Information Studies, Master of Information, Master of Arts, Master of Librarianship, Master of Library and Information Studies, or Master of Science.
 The degree name is determined by the program.
 The [ALA] Committee for Accreditation evaluates programs based on their adherence to the Standards for Accreditation of Master's Programs in Library and Information Studies, not based on the name of the degree."
Library and information science (LIS) (sometimes given as the plural library and information sciences) or as "library and information studies" is a merging of library science and information science.
 The joint term is associated with schools of library and information science (abbreviated to "SLIS").
 In the last part of the 1960s, schools of librarianship, which generally developed from professional training programs (not academic disciplines) to university institutions during the second half of the 20th century, began to add the term "information science" to their names.
 The first school to do this was at the University of Pittsburgh in 1964.
 More schools followed during the 1970s and 1980s, and by the 1990s almost all library schools in the USA had added information science to their names.
The University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign (also known as U of I, Illinois, or colloquially as the University of Illinois or UIUC) is a public research university in the U.S. state of Illinois.
