Being an Information Innovator
Description:
Whilst there is no shortage of professional literature discussing the changing nature of libraries in the digital age, words such as innovation, entrepreneurship and creativity make only occasional appearances. Considerable change and innovation has been achieved in information organizations through the opening decades of the digital age, and a future in which all information resources, including books and archives, will be accessed in digital format poses even greater challenges for information professionals and organizations. The ability to move into uncharted territory, engage in and enjoy innovation, create radical new visions, and manage resources in risky environments will be essential. This groundbreaking book is the first to discuss and apply the rhetoric and theories of innovation and entrepreneurship in information organizations. It both celebrates existing examples of good practice, and promotes the development of innovative and entrepreneurial behaviour at all organizational levels. The key chapters include: the nature of innovation and entrepreneurship; innovation and entrepreneurship in information organizations; using knowledge and networks to learn and innovate; organizing for innovation and entrepreneurship; and, corporate and social entrepreneurship in public sector information services. The authors offer theoretical concepts and frameworks for reflection and change, but these are complemented by a range of practical examples and case cameos which demonstrate innovation and entrepreneurship in action in information organizations. In addition, some of the other features of the book - objectives, summaries, reflections and review questions - are suitable both for individual reflection and learning, and for group learning situations, such as professional development and training courses. This book is designed for all information professionals who wish to understand and engage creatively with innovation to achieve success, and to realise the benefits of entrepreneurial action in their organizations.
