As part of the ongoing development of reference services, here at the City
of Greater Dandenong Libraries, we are investigating introducing the
concept of the Roving Librarian. This has implications for behviours,
skills, training, layout and equipment, as well as the change factor. I am
interested in finding out if this is occurring in the UK in the public
library environment.
I have been able to get a lot of information on Roving Librarians within
the academic enviromnent, most often within the US, but little in public
libraries, and am curious to hear whether this is happening in public
libraries at all.
I look forward to any information.
