Risk and regulatory management solutions J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc., US, has announced the availability of a new, free white paper, 'Economic Impact: How Information Professionals Are Coping with Change.' The white paper seeks to provide information professionals with valuable insight into the creative ways their peers are coping with staffing and budget changes. It features the results of a survey in which information professionals revealed their recession survival strategies.
The survey, conducted on J. J. Keller's behalf by Free Pint Ltd., was promoted to subscribers of ResourceShelf, a FreePint-published resource of web-based resources used by information professionals in North America and around the world. A J. J. Keller-sponsored mailing, sent to all subscribers, invited participation in the survey this spring. Most of the 308 respondents reported that they work in professional services, in organisations with more than 5,000 employees; a significant portion of respondents work in academic libraries and nonprofit organisations.
Making use of free resources is seen to be the most important tactic for coping with reduced content budgets, the survey revealed. According to the survey, using technology and/or automation is most relevant for coping with staffing changes. Also, it noted that doing more with less is the information professional's new mantra.
