PERCEPTIONS OF THE POSSIBLE: THE FUTURE OF THE INFORMATION PROFESSIONAL

摘要

Collaboration and open-mindedness were the emphases of a talk by Elspeth Hyams at September's LIST 97 conference in Hatfield, UK. Elspeth Hyams is Director of the Institute of Information Scientists (IIS) and she was speaking on 'New technological horizons and opportunities for LIS'. Rather than look at what might be on or over the technological horizon, though, her talk concentrated more on what information professionals must do to get to that horizon in the first place.
