Riassunto:

Librarianship in further education colleges and the former polytechnics is closely involved with the learning process: the book offers the experience and inspiration of educational managers and librarians committed to learner-centred institutions, examining the opportunities that exist for librarians to contribute to learning and influence its development. It shows that the acceleration of learner-centred and flexible styles of learning has brought libraries centre-stage in all tertiary (ie post-16) education. From the exploration of "The student and the learning process" in the opening chapter, subsequent contributions address the opportunities and constraints in developing learner-centred and flexible learning, and in resource management. Quality is a key issue throughout. The influence and impact of college librarians and their professional network on librarianship as a whole is discussed. The book concludes with a vision of education and college librarianship in the post-Incorporation era.
