This issue is concerned with metatheories in library and information science (LIS) andespecially with the philosophy of science of LIS. Metatheories are theories about thedescription, investigation, analysis or criticism of the theories in a domain. They aremostly internal to a domain, and may also be termed “paradigms”, “traditions” or“schools”[1]. The present issue is termed “library and information science and thephilosophy of science”[2] to indicate that the emphasis is on basic approachesdeveloped and generally well known outside of LIS (such as critical realism,empiricism, hermeneutics and pragmatism). Here these general views are interpretedand investigated within the context of LIS. Such approaches deal with how knowledgeis understood and acquired and are important in discourses of the foundations of anydomain.
