Abstract
The Institut Universitaire de Technologic of the Toulouse University of sciences (France) started in the 1993-1994 academic year a new educational programme for multi-lingual information officers which complies with the regulations of the national standard curriculum applicable to the departments of information and documentation. This new development, which involves general and technical courses given in French and in foreign languages, aims to provide a professional education to information officers who should be able to take up positions and quickly become effective in organizations with an international activity in France or in other countries of the European Union.
期刊介绍:
Information is widely recognized as a vital resource in economic development. The skills of information handling traditionally associated with libraries, are now in great demand in all sectors, including government, business and commerce. The education and training of information professionals is, therefore, an issue of growing significance. Education for Information has been since 1983 a forum for debate and discussion on education and training issues in the sphere of information handling. It includes refereed full-length articles and short communications on matters of current concern to educators and practitioners alike. Its News section reports on significant activities and events in the international arena.
