The workforce at the beginning of the 21st century is comprised of four
generations. Each group has its own set of values, perspectives, personal
experiences, etc. What similarities or differences exist among the various
groups? And how can libraries create a culture that minimizes conflicts and
builds on the strengths of each group?
