Abstract
During the past two years a Joint Committee of representatives of the Library Association and Aslib has met at intervals to consider ways in which the syllabus of the Library Association could be made to suit more fully the needs of all types of library and information work. The aim has largely been to discover how the present syllabus could be changed so that anyone holding the chartered qualification of the Library Association would be competent to work effectively, on the basis of the knowledge they had gained, in any type of library. In the March, 1957, Library Association Record, there was published a draft scheme, and this scheme has formed the basis of the comments in this Symposium. The draft has been fairly well surveyed by our contributors, but we are open to publish further comment.
