Abstract

The module "Innovation and Development in Information Services" for MA in Information Management course at the London Metropolitan University takes a novel approach to providing additional learning opportunities to students. While students are normally encouraged to be "publishing-active", few take up the challenge. It was therefore decided to include writing a short piece for ISJ as a coursework requirement. Selected ones could then be submitted to ISJ. The first one, by Catherine Lusted, outlines the proposal to establish a Library Youth Board, consisting of young people to advise senior management on library service design and delivery.
