What is the goal of the Bowker Library School Initiative?
There are several goals: a) To expose library school students to databases they might not otherwise have the opportunity to use in advance of their entry into the marketplace. b) To increase library students’ exposure to, awareness of and proficiency in using one or more of the Bowker databases. c) To augment students’ existing database searching skills within the context of academic projects, research, or lectures d) To integrate the Bowker powerful database features into academic coursework and projects where faculty feel this will benefit library students’ knowledgebase and marketability.
