Hurrah! Law librarians or rather “Legal Information Managers”, “Knowledge Managers” and “Directors of Information Services”, have at last received a good press from no less than our old friends Sweet & Maxwell, with subsequent coverage in The Times. It seems that they have conducted a survey of library and information services within the top 100 law firms and have discovered that the position and prospects of law librarians have improved greatly over the last few years and particularly since the advent of Knowledge Management, with over twenty per cent of us now reporting either directly to the Managing Partner or sitting on the management board. This is very good news for us professionally and makes a welcome change from the not too distant past when redundancies were the order of the day.
