New Ideas in Management From MmIT

The development of digitisation and the growth of hybrid libraries open up the management of information services to new ideas current in mainstream management theory and evident in practice in other knowledge-based sectors
and areas of the creative industries.

The Multimedia Information & Technology Group ran a management workshop on new ideas in library management on the 20th October 2005 at Cilip Headquarters. The day was highly participative, including opportunities for group and
individual working. The workshopl identified the major changes in contemporary information services organisation, and explore the implications of these changes for information services managers and staff. Of value to practising managers and anyone interested in management education and development, by the end of
the day participants were able to

• Identify the major changes taking place in libraries and information services
  
• Demonstrate an understanding of the implications of these changes for organisational structures, leadership, motivation, key aspects of human resource management, and personal and professional development
  
• Create a plan for translating these ideas into achievable actions in the workplace
