Abstract

Canadian library technician programs have responded in various ways to the downsizing, budget restraints, and changing job markets that result from the economic and political climate of the 1990s in North America. The article lists the traditional skills taught in library technician programs and reports on the ways technical services courses have been, or will be, modified in the 1990s based on an informal survey of seven Canadian library technician programs. The author believes that much of the content of this article is valid for library technician programs in the United States as it is for those in Canada.
