- Summary:
-
Our aim is for the Australian library workforce to be as diverse as the communities we serve. In 2019, the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA) examined Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Census data to measure the level of diversity among library and information science (LIS) workers over the last decade and to provide a basis for future trend reporting. Since 2014, we have published the annual ALIA LIS Education, Skills and Employment Trend Report. This 2019 publication is intended to complement the Trend Report and it will be updated following the release of the 2021 Census data. Our intention is to put hard facts to aspects of employment where we have previously relied on anecdotal evidence. The report provides statistics about diversity in the sector by comparison with the labour force norm. This does not mean that the labour force norm is the ideal, but it does give the sector a benchmark against which we can set aspirational goals ... This report has been created from the data collected and made available by the ABS. While our principle concern is the library and information sector, we have extended the report to cover the GLAMR (galleries, libraries, archives, museums and records) sector."--Introduction.
