The Public Library People directory is a UKOLN managed database of contact
information for UK public library staff. It is particularly targeted at
those staff who have an email address. It currently has entries for 277
public librarians from 88 library authorities. Outlook Express users can
configure their e-mail accounts so that the public library people directory
can be searched directly from their e-mail accounts.
The directory can be found at
http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/public/people/
and information about how to configure Outlook express for direct searching
can be found at
http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/public/people/outlook.html
The success of the directory depends upon people registering their contact
details using a simple online form. The more public librarians who
register, the more effective it will be. Please add your own details and
encourage your colleagues to do likewise. Details can be added by clicking
on the 'new' button on the directory's homepage.
The Public Library People Directory has been developed as part of the PRIDE
project. More information about PRIDE can be found at
