Integrating Intelligence Analysis with Library and Information Science Education

This document by Blane K. Dessy, Executive Director of the Federal Library and Information Center Committee, defines intelligence as the synthesis of information processing and decision-support functions. It postulates a hypothesis that librarians and information specialists possess the necessary skills for intelligence analysis and explores the similarities between intelligence education and library science training. It emphasizes Bloom's Taxonomy as a framework for competency development, discusses the intelligence cycle, and highlights future possibilities for collaboration between the fields of intelligence analysis and library/information science education.

  2. Definition of Intelligence • The product resulting from the collection, processing, integration, analysis, evaluation, and interpretation of available information… • A decision support function whose primary purpose is reducing ambiguity about all things as directed…

  3. HYPOTHESIS • If education, training and skills were compared, librarians and information specialists would be considered successful candidates for intelligence analysis.

  4. Alternative Students for Intelligence Education • Similarities between Intelligence Education and Library/Information Science Education (Bloom’s Taxonomy) • Librarian/Information Specialist Training • The Intelligence Cycle and Librarian/Information Specialists • Possibilities

  5. Bloom’s Taxonomy • Cognitive Levels • Remember • Understand • Apply • Analyze • Evaluate • Create

  6. Bloom’s Taxonomy (Con’d) • Types of Knowledge • Factual • Conceptual • Procedural • Metacognition

  7. Libn. Competencies and Bloom’s Types of Knowledge • Org. Knowledge Factual • Leadership Factual • Research Content • Collection Procedural • Content Org. Metacognition • Technology Procedural • Specialized Abilities Metacognition

  8. Librarian Knowledge and Cognitive Levels

  9. Library and Information Science Training • Organization of Information • Information Sources & Services • Information Systems • Information in Society • Information Architecture/Web Design • MetaData • Indexing/Abstracting/Thesaurus Creation

  10. Library and Information Science Training (Con’d) • On-Line Retrieval • Database Management • Programming for Web Applications • Systems Analysis and Evaluation • User Interface Design • Actionable Intelligence

  11. The Intelligence Cycle/Process • Requirement • Initial Analysis & Research • Determine Data Gaps • Initial Collection Requirements • Initial Collection Operations • Collection Processing & Dissemination • Additional Analysis and Research • Final Analysis and Production • Dissemination (may lead to new Requirement)

  12. Future Possibilities for Collaboration • Continued analysis between Intelligence Analysis and Library and Information Science skills and abilities • Development of joint education or training efforts--shared faculty, cross registration • Student internships or practica in intelligence analysis settings

  13. Hypothesis Proven
