Abstract
Library, information and knowledge (LIK) competencies have elements of distinct commonness and innate semblance. These have been treated together in the iSchools, a development during the last two decades. Adoption of the nomenclature of information management (IM) in a Pakistani LIS department should also be studied with the same outlook with a keen sense of paradigm shift. This paper reflects on this significant transition and identifies the challenges that are to be addressed in order to manage change effectively. This paper outlines a strategy for curriculum redesign, based on a conceptual model this author had developed earlier. Other challenges of transition need to be treated with incision and rigor.
