T. Huskamp Peterson, Lifelong Learning: the Archival Profession in 21

st Century, Arh. vjesn., god. 40 (1997) str. 89-93 adopted by a library training program in Poland, begining in the fall 1997. Many other variations are possible. Whatever model is chosen, lifelong learning requires the active participation of three partners: the proffesional who identifies the need to enhance skills, the employing organization that supports continuous professional development, and the organization and persons providing the educational opportunity. Skills development is a continuum, organizational needs change, and educators must continuously listen to the professionals. No one type of training is appropriate for all topics, all professionals, or all organizations. A menu of educational opportunities, with varied approaches, will be required to meet the continuing needs of archivists in the twenty-first century. 93
