Abstract
Abstract Library and information science (LIS) education in Eswatini is not yet grounded. Although several interventions exist to improve the quality of LIS education in Eswatini, there have not been many attempts to systematically adapt and integrate massive open online courses (MOOCs) in LIS education. This article presents strategies that can be used in Eswatini to adapt and integrate MOOCs to enhance the quality of LIS education. These strategies are the first steps toward assisting higher education institutions in Eswatini to utilize the potential of MOOCs to improve the quality of LIS education.
