FUMSI Magazine and FUMSI Site Now Launched
New resources deepen value of 10 years of content, maintain free
resources and offer expanded usage opportunities for subscribers
Free Pint Limited is proud to announce the launch of FUMSI, offering
unmatched opportunities to promote information-related products and
services to our global audiences. Designed to support professionals
who Find, Use, Manage and Share Information, FUMSI offers:
- A monthly FUMSI Magazine (extracts from Issue 1 attached), with
practical tips and resources written by experts in the field; the
full issue can be found at http://web.fumsi.com/go/magazine/
- A searchable online database of tips and features at
http://web.fumsi.com/go/article/
- Easy-to-use online features to email, save and print articles for
sharing and future use
- Practical reports and tools for information-related projects (list
and downloadable catalogue at http://web.fumsi.com/go/report/)
'FUMSI is the direct result of a long process of strategic planning',
says Robin Neidorf, General Manager of Free Pint Limited. 'Through the
FreePint Newsletter, we have a decade of history of publishing
practical, expert-written arcles on information work. With FUMSI, we
now have a more flexible format for organising all that content and
helping users find and interact with the pieces that are most valuable
to them.'
To support FUMSI, Free Pint Limited has expanded its editorial team.
Sara Waddington serves as Senior Managing Editor, and each practice
area has the attention of a Contributing Editor with expertise in the
field.
Online FUMSI content offered to all users for free, supported through
sponsorships. We thank our launch sponsors for their support of FUMSI:

Paid subscriptions enable organisations to make more use of FUMSI
resources through republication and reuse, discounts on reports and
issues of VIP, and other benefits. Information on subscription levels
and their benefits can be found at http://www.fumsi.com/how/join/.
'Over the years, it's become increasingly obvious that information
work extends far beyond the traditional library', Robin adds. 'More
job titles than ever incorporate an information function. FUMSI is
designed to increase the value of information to organisations by
improving everyone's information skills. At the same time, it helps
people who sit in different parts of the organisation work together
more effectively. FUMSI breaks down information into the four practice
areas, but it also pulls it together as a whole.'
