Description

This document presents an overview of the major Professional Pathways Frameworks Project Technical Report, commissioned by the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA), which has been prepared as part of the Professional Pathways project. The Technical Report documents the findings from a major literature review and environmental scan to develop a clear understanding of the diverse and often complex issues relating to the education and qualification pathways into the library and information profession.
 
The research activities examined five key themes: the specific knowledge and skills required by library and information professionals, the values and ethics that underpin professional practice, the current qualification pathways into the profession, the role of micro-credentials in professional pathways, and the value of continuing professional development for professional recognition.
