Description
The aim of this module is to relate theoretical knowledge developed through the core courses of the programme to real-life situations. In doing so, the module will foster awareness of professional identity and of the purpose and role of the professional librarian; encourage a broad view of the professional skills as applicable to a variety of employment sectors; promote an understanding of the relationships between the other courses in the programme; identify pervasive trends in the profession; promote awareness of current social and political issues including equality, diversity and inclusion; and support a critical and analytical approach to professional activity.
For full-time students, this module includes a 2 week work placement that takes place in late April/early May.
