"The main gaps that librarians noted in their library schohol education was the lack of preparation for teaching and training..." (Petrinic and Urquhart 2007).

I certainly don't remember doing much on learning and teaching for my library qualification - or CILIP chartership.

Given that there are librarians from just about every sector on this site who are involved in some form of education - should educational practice be part of library/ information studies courses?
