provided to libraries are not increasing to keep up with the

be needed. Helen Darch Nedhurst Consulting,

PANEL: LEARNING ON THE RUN - PITFALLS AND POSSIBILITIES
Education and training no longer follows formal patterns
or sequences in what is viewed as a lifelong learning process.
Libraries facilitate informal learning and make possible the
gaining of wisdom and knowledge by learners throughout their
lives. Any time, any space , any place demands for flexible
learning are placing further demands on the way libraries undertake
these activities. People involved in providing teaching and
learning experiences outline their perspectives and approaches.
