Learning and development for library staff

The report from the NLH-commissioned study into learning and development needs of library staff, is now available. The study team led by Christine Urquhart, was tasked with synthesising existing knowledge. A national meeting of stakeholders and library staff (attended by various LKDN members) was held last week in Birmingham – notes and actions from this will be available shortly. The report and Chris’ presentation from the meeting are now available online .

New FOLIO module

Getting to Grips with Knowledge Management will run during June and July. The module will cover some of the theory but the emphasis will be on practical steps and on case studies of NHS KM practice. Places are limited to the first fifty application forms received between Friday 13th May and Tuesday 7th June.
