Over the past four months at TFPL a number of us have been engaged in research into the emerging job market. We have now reached the data analysis stage of the project. Soon we will be able to report on the extent to which particular sectors of the information job market-place are identifiable; the major drivers for the creation of new roles; the sectors which offer the greatest potential for employment growth; and how the available roles might be filled. Our expectation is that the results will be of interest to anyone in the information industry whose own job function encompasses workforce planning or training, or the preparation of new graduates for information work, as well as anyone in the sector who believes in investing in professional development - whether for their own benefit or the benefit of the profession as a whole. For a sneak preview of the findings of the project you can sign up for a presentation to be made in London to ICLG by Hazel Hall on Wednesday 19th July. Please see: http://www.cilip.org.uk/specialinterestgroups/bysubject/iclg/events.

Dear Hazel,
I find very interesting this research about emerging job markets. I really would like to know more. I have noticed that the link you posted on this blog is currently not working. Do you think I could have more information about this reseach and read the results of this excellent study once available?
Thank you. I wish you a great job.
Best,
Danilo
