Se exponen los resultados que se refieren a la contribución de las mujeres a la sociedad en la era de la información y al grado de respeto que se muestra hacia ellas y hacia la profesión en general. Se pregunta si funciona en el mundo de la información una especie de “techo de cristal”, que significaría que los hombres llegan antes a puestos más elevados. También se abordan temas relacionados con los salarios, la cualificación, así como la formación y desarrollo del personal. Se destacan algunos casos expuestos por los participantes donde se muestran situaciones de desigualdad y se sugieren lecturas e investigaciones adicionales. | This artilcle reports the results of an IFLA Round Table on Women’s Issues-sponsored survey on the status of women in libraries worldwide.
