Management changes facing librarianship in Australia

Abstract

Five challenges for leadership and management skills were identified by the Karpin Report, “Enterprising Nation”. These were: to develop a positive enterprise culture; to upgrade the capabilities of the vocational training and education sector, capitalising on the talents of diversity, best practice management development and achievement of best practice. Each challenge is related to Australian librarianship in the 1990s and relevant issues for management education and professional development discussed.
