What Profession Is This And Why Are We Here Anyway?

The emerging technologies and the growth of information are
creating incredible new possibilities and opportunities to the field
of librarianship. From traditional libraries to a variety of dot.coms,
the ability to provide information wherever, whenever and however has
become big business. The popular focus on the information society has
generated discussion in our profession about who we are - are we
information professionals or librarians. In this session, Dr. Jenkins will
provide an overview on issues related to questions about what profession we
are and what titles we wear.
