Some of that information needs bibliographic control and retention for future users. This reality is the primary challenge to those of us who work as librarians, train librarians, or wish to become librarians. To help meet this challenge, the Continuing Education Committee has developed a series of meetings on how to merge the physical information found in libraries with electronic information. Follow-up meetings are scheduled for March 11 and April 10 to encourage discussion of the issues raised. Users of information no longer have to go to a physical location.
Information is everywhere.
Finding it is a skill librarians already possess. We have no excuse for not expanding that skill to help future users of information. Training and Change Marilyn Shaver, Personnel Officer Change is a fact of life for those of us who work in the IU Libraries, and most of us agree that we must do a better job of preparing ourselves to deal with that change. Training and continuing education can provide valuable support to employees faced with change in their daily work lives. There are numerous opportunities at IU and in the Libraries to participate in these kinds of activities.
