Abstract
Greatly increased access to network telecommunications facilities such as the Internet has led to the development of formal courses offered through the networks. For information professionals, network access has made possible the integrated delivery of educational material with access to the resources that the professionals are learning about. This "distributed education" is considered with respect to: course design and learning objectives; conferencing systems and software support; computer-mediated communication and collaborative learning; delivery of resource materials and effect on library processes; and assessment of performance of participants.
