Supporting Librarians as Essential Information Professionals

from The Authority File

In the final episode of this four-part series, Louis Coiffait-Gunn, CEO of the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP), and Camille Gamboa, AVP of Corporate Communications at Sage, explore supporting information professionals in the push for stronger public trust in science. Highlighting consistent patron trust in libraries, our guests see librarians as key players in the fight for academic freedom. In fact, Louis discusses the library’s connections to the local community, research ecosystem, and publishing cycle as crucial benefits. Surfacing the recent information curation guide from Sage and Sense about Science, he also notes the value of the guide’s connections across the information ecosystem and points to the tech industry as an essential partner. To close, Louis reflects on librarians’ changing curatorial roles in the AI environment, and Camille previews next steps from Sage following the guide’s publication. Missed an episode?
