Clarifying the specific manifestations of their contributions can provide references for the development of library science education today. [Design/Methodology]With the methods of sorting out and inductive analysis of historical materials, this paper summarized the main manifestations and practical enlightenment of the BLS students’ contributions to library science education in the Chinese Republic period.[Findings/Conclusion]The contributions of the BLS students in library science education during that period were mainly reflected in the following aspects: demonstrating the effectiveness and enhancing the cognition of professional education; introducing scarce professional teachers to promote education; focusing on combining practice with teaching and research to meet the needs of libraries. The enlightenment to current library science education includes: promoting the innovation of library science education through interaction, making full use of alumni, and promoting the development of education with the spirit of self-improvement.[Originality/Value]This paper systematically summarized the contributions of the BLS students to library science education during the Chinese Republic period. It made an analysis on the important measures to promote the development of library science education from the perspectives of positive interaction between education and librarianship, emphasis on practice education, and strengthening the shaping of spirit.
