IFLA Issues New Professional Education Guidelines
IFLA's Professional Board has approved the Guidelines for Professional Library/Information Educational Programmes - 2000, prepared by the IFLA Section on Education and Training. The new guidelines primarily cover the graduate and professional level. They address the following aspects:
Lis Byberg, Chair of IFLA's Division on Education and Research commented: "I am delighted and proud to present these new Guidelines; after almost a quarter of a century it was high time and our profession deserves this up-to-date version in support of educational programmes on a state-of-the-art basis." The guidelines are in effect a revision of the "Standards for Library Schools" published by IFLA in 1976 for the Section on Education and Training. This new version has been drafted by a working group of the Section whose members include: Evelyn Daniel, Susan Lazinger and Ole Harbo.
