Abstract: ［Purpose/Significance］In 2018, we organized and implemented the sixth national MLIS education development survey to study the current situation and development trend of MLIS education in China.［Design/Methodology］Through the questionnaire survey and on-site investigation, we have had an in-depth understanding of MLIS training institutions, teaching staff, enrollment and employment, cultivation, and construction of degree programs. By reviewing the data over the past few years, we analyzed the development trend of MLIS education.［Findings/Conclusion］According to the survey of 29 MLIS training institutions, the number of fulltime faculty, tutor number, enrollment number, composition of freshmen, and employment of graduates in 2018 have been explored. By continuing exploration and standardization of the training model and teaching resource for MLIS, many institutions are gradually shaping their own characteristics. ［Originality/Value］Compared to the previous reports, three new parts have been added into this survey, including practice base, curriculum construction and case teaching, and policy consultation. Besides, suggestions on the construction and development of MLIS degree programs have been proposed.
