WebJunction announces the release of a new report: "Trends in E-Learning for Library Staff: A Summary of Research Findings." This report summarizes the information gathered in a 2005 survey of training and education in library organizations.
WebJunction began offering online courses to the library community in 2003. Recognizing that little data exists about the use of e-learning for staff training and education in library organizations, WebJunction commissioned an independent consultant to investigate this topic. This report is a compilation of key findings from the survey of 651 respondents across the United States.
Nearly 50 percent of library organizations surveyed are already implementing e-learning in some form. The report reveals their views on:
* Why library organizations purchase or develop e-learning opportunities for their staff members
* Where library organizations go for advice on e-learning
* Situations in which e-learning is most effective
* Course topics of interest
* How library organizations choose software providers
