Next Gen Librarianship:
Where Do We Go from Here?
Soaring to Excellence
Speaker: Rachel Singer Gordon
Broadcast Date: Friday, February 9, 2007
Today's multigenerational library workforce faces a number of both internal and external challenges. To meet these challenges, we need to learn how to work together effectively, keep connected and current, and draw on individuals' unique strengths. In a graying profession, we also need to pay attention to succession planning, passing on institutional wisdom, and recruiting, retaining, and mentoring the next generation. This teleconference is 90 minutes in length--Noon to 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
