Abstract: With the renaming of the first-level discipline from “Library, Information and Archives Management” to “Information Resource Management”, there is a pressing need to reassess and improve the construction of Library and Information Science (LIS) in China. The construction model of LIS plays a crucial role in shaping the future discipline’s development. This study adopts literature review, network research and comparative analysis to explore the current situation of regional distribution, key stakeholders and cooperation models in the LIS field. Based on these findings, this study analyzes our characteristic LIS construction model. The construction model of LIS in China should be based on the existing internal and external needs and opportunities. Introducing the concept of structural empowerment, this study applies it to LIS construction, focusing on regional, subject, and cooperative empowerment. The goal is to refine the LIS construction model and promote the high quality development of the LIS discipline in China.
