Whither the information profession? Challenges and opportunities. The cultivation of information professionals for the new millennium.

Arguably the information professional today faces so many challenges, but at the same time there are equally so many opportunities to innovate, seek out new customers, improve existing services and systems and harness the continuing explosion of information to the organisation's and individual customer's advantage. The converging technologies are offering opportunities which no other generation of information workers has ever been able to even dream of previously. From your own workstation it is possible to link easily and cost effectively into services, systems and information which were previously either not accessible, or not even known. © 1997, MCB UP Limited
