We’ll then hear from Helen Fallon & Lynne Budden about how NIUM is meeting the challenge via Staff Development. Finally we’ll hear from John McDonough, of the Oireachtas Library & Research Service about the Fas JobBridge Programme how it works and its benefits. Then we’ll get tips from practitioners in the field (in UCD and UL) about their schemes.
The afternoon session is on how we as a profession are coping with these challenging times. We’ll hear from Caitriona Sharkey will tell us about the Library Association of Ireland report on Employment Support. Diane Sonnenwald, SILS will then tell us how they are providing ‘real life’ experience for their students.
