The articles are written by Information Professionals, but they assume nothing of the reader which makes it easy to approach a new topic and to be confident in understanding the basics." [...]More »
FUMSI Report: Folio on Adding Value
28th May 2009
"Everybody knows that what you do for your organisation is really valuable because they keep stopping you in the corridor to tell you so. Right? Wrong. That's only the satisfied customers - and even that won't necessarily convince your bosses that what you're doing contributes to the bottom line."
- Tim Buckley Owen, FUMSI Contributing Editor: Use
Total pages: 40
Adding value matters at the best of
times - but it matters all the more when
times are tough.
Adding Value is a FUMSI Folio, collecting FUMSI articles on a specific topic. Published in a convenient package and framed with editorial commentary from Tim Buckley Owen, our contributing editor for the Use practice area, Adding Value is a must-have resource for the reference and skill-development library of any information centre or information professional.
