Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to present a modern view of the transformation of library education in Ukraine through the prism of educational programmes of major 029 "Information, library and archival affairs" posted on the website of the Information System "Vstup.OSVITA.UA". The research methodology is based on the application of general scientific and special methods of cognition, in particular the system approach, analysis, synthesis, generalisation, logical and quantitative methods, and the method of visualisation of research results. Comparative and analytical monitoring of the "Vstup.OSVITA.UA" Information System was also used, which made it possible to identify educational programs of specialty 029 "Information, library, and archival affairs". The scientific novelty of the article lies in expanding ideas about the current state of library education in Ukraine, its transformation under the influence of digital technologies, and harmonisation with the International Standard Classification of Education. Conclusions. Some aspects of the implementation of the Library Development Strategy for the period up to 2025 "Qualitative changes in libraries to ensure the sustainable development of Ukraine" and the "Strategy for the Development of Higher Education in Ukraine for 2022-2032" were considered, which proved Ukraine's aspiration to global educational trends of the future. However, this process is quite slow. The information on the educational programmes of specialty 029 "Information, library and archival affairs" posted on the website of the Information System "Vstup.OSVITA.UA" was analysed and summarised. In addition, the transformation of library education takes place in the conditions of digitalisation of information activities and must correspond to real changes in the library and information complex. The creation of the Interagency Working Group on Reforming the National Classifier of Ukraine DK 003:2010 "Profession Classifier" will help to harmonise it with the International Standard Classification of Occupations ISCO-08. The national classifier DK 009:2010 "Classification of types of economic activity" needs revision, because it lacks the names of modern types of economic activity.
