Library consultancy in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Overseas Development Administration

Abstract

Most of the literature of library consultancy has been written by practising consultants. It concentrates on what consultants require to do their job and their perceptions of the process. This paper describes from the Library staff's viewpoint the various steps in a particular automation consultancy study which took place in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Overseas Development Administration libraries in the first half of 1986, and attempts to draw some general conclusions from them.
