This book, first published in 1990, addresses the concerns of
librarians that they must be informed and educated in order to
excel in their work. It focuses on specific types of training for
librarians. Authorities explain pioneering programs in California
and Maryland which deal with teaching basic reference tools to
beginning librarians and paraprofessionals. They also discuss the
role of multitype networks in continuing education as the most cost
and time efficient means available today, and the use of
self-directed contract learning as a method that requires long-term
planning and rewards in contrast to the immediate results of a
short-term plan of education. The management perspective of
continuing education is also included. Working library directors
offer their observations on sound, inspirational approaches to
continuing education. They also examine the critical role
department heads play as mentor to beginning reference librarians.
