Information Management
Information Management
I have been looking again at Thorogood’s recent major contribution to information management (its ‘Specialist Reports Subscription Scheme’) and marvelling not just at its value, but also its practical usefulness to members of those professional practices and companies where far-sighted ‘librarians’ have realised its usefulness.
It demonstrates just how far the service of a ‘librarian’ has travelled in recent times and how much Thorogood is trying to make the journey for them even more comfortable.
Information management, information science, information broking, knowledge management, research specialists, competitive intelligence specialists AND those who still call themselves librarians (!) will find, in the scope and coverage of the Reports, a wonderful source of incredibly useful information.
Not only in the Reports included in the service, but in the updates that will be made in new editions and new titles, the service will also feature extended facilities in continuing professional education aspects (including CPD points/hours) which participating firms will be able to access on-line – a very handy service to individuals who use the scheme.
It would be helpful to hear how users find the service and what additional features they would find useful. Please let us know.
The Reports themselves are based on the concept of a special topic being given a succinct and practical analysis by an ‘expert’ author at a length that lends itself to easy assimilation by the ‘reader’, or ‘user’, as I suppose us ‘information publishers’ must start calling our ‘customers’!!
