Transcript of Mr Alan Smiths third video clip.

Im Alan Smith, the Director of the State Library of South Australia.

The Business Information Management course will bring together a whole range of people with a
whole range of skills that can learn from each other, and from the courses that have been especially devised for this Graduate Certificate.

The emphasis is actually on the management part of the equation.  We do a lot with record, we do a lot with information and we do a lot with knowledge but it is the way we manage it, promote it, and the way we can best utilise existing resources and attract new resources into these areas.

We are looking for people who graduate with a very clear understanding and knowledge of the ways in which their skills can be worked in the work environment.  We are particularly keen to see people with a very active and strategic approach to records management, knowledge management and librarianship.
