This paper initially presents the current context of Information Science, as its nature is perceived by contemporary definitions. These definitions are inextricably linked up the modern Information and Communication Technologies. Nevertheless, this context is historically criticized herein, by presenting examples of the past that demonstrate the evolution of information processing alongside the evolution of contemporary technologies. Consequently, a new context is proposed that includes the diachronic human efforts on processing information for achieving/ensuring communication between them. This new proposed context expands the definition of Information Science, in order to include a related group of Arts and Sciences, making it more of a scientific umbrella term that describes the field of human communication tools, concepts and practices. In this respect, the associated field is termed in plural, namely, Information Sciences.
