The TRAINING OF SPECIAL LIBRARY STAFF
Abstract
Mr Mason, in his paper, used the term ‘manager’ to denote the person at the head of or in charge of an information service. I shall use the word ‘librarian’ in the same sense, partly because the word comes easier to my tongue than ‘manager’, but mainly because I hold most firmly to the basic concept of the unity of librarianship. At the risk of a head‐on collision with Mr Farradane, I will say at the outset that I speak to you in the belief that information officers, information scientists, special librarians—calling them whatever they choose to call themselves—are, in fact, practising all or part of the profession of librarianship in a particular context.
