Librarians are the ultimate information workers, with little they can count as done at the end of the day. Staying productive and motivated when there are no finished items that you have created at day's end can be difficult. For just this reason, David Allen, author and productivity expert, has proposed an information-worker-centric theory of time management that can help keep librarians busy and productive and make them exceptionally valuable to their organizations. The Getting Things Done (GTD) time management method gives library workers of all kinds ways to keep tabs on what they are doing, what they need to do next, and what they have done so far--all while keeping the major goals of their jobs and their organizations in sight. GTD combines to-do lists, project management, and organizational skills to allow workers to do their jobs effectively.
