Core Technology Competencies for Librarians and Library Staff: A LITA Guide

Chapter two, "The Library School's Role in Preparing New Librarians for Working with Technology," written by Neal, examines the core competency statements of library organizations and surveys library practicum supervisors to develop a list of both "hard" and "soft" technology skills that library graduate schools need to make certain their graduates have. The final section of the book, "Successful Competency Implementation Programs," is a collection of three case studies of an academic library, a public library, and a medical library.
