My name is Peter Fleming and I am currently studying for a Masters’ degree in Library and Information Studies at University College Dublin. This blog is being created as part of my assessment for IS40430: Professional Issues in Information and Library Careers and serve as a portfolio thereafter. More information (that’s what were all after) can be found on the about me section.
