Abstract

Considers the history of practice-based research in the UK library and information science sector, and demonstrates that the emphasis in the recent eLib programme on practitioner involvement and leadership has its roots in research carried out 30 or more years ago. It is suggested that practice-based research has an important role to play in stimulating significant, far-reaching developments and in training new generations of professional leaders.
