Look Up and Learn Support for Adult Independent Learning in Libraries: Library Association Adult Independent Learning Guidelines for Libraries and Learning Resource Centres (LA guidelines) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Libraries are the natural recourse for the student. Outside the formal education system there exists a multitude of adult learners who are students in the wider sense of the term: they seek to increase their knowledge from a host of motives, ranging from sheer personal interest to the imperative of career development.
This guide for the 1990s emphasizes the learners and the librarians, not the type of library. It addresses the needs of the learners for educational guidance, for a real choice of methods of learning, and a variety of modern library stocks. It explains the competences and knowledge required of librarians working within an educational support network.
These guidelines will allow libraries to assess the extent of both their current and desired involvement. The structured approach can be marketed to users and staff alike. Areas covered include information and education guidance, the learners, the materials, access, library staff, marketing the service, and evaluation.
