Description

Caveat: The views expressed in this paper are mine alone (except where cited), and do not represent those of the University of South Australia. Information professionals and those who educate them face enormous challenges. Increasingly easy access to communication media and information is altering perceptions of the very nature of information work, globally. There is no doubt that there are many challenges facing present and prospective information professionals too. These include issues around internationalisation and accreditation; the level and structure of programs for first professional qualifications and competition from neighbouring disciplines.
