Most organizations offer some kind of content library to help their people develop. But how much content is too much? How do you give your people choice, without overloading them?

In this week's episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Ross G and Ross D are joined by Rosemary Hoskins (formerly of AstraZeneca), to discuss:

• Why are extensive content libraries a problem (as well as a solution) for organizations?
• What mechanisms help people find the right content, at the right time?
• Does it matter if people like the content we provide?

The article Rosemary wrote with Marc Zao-Sanders was 'A framework for discoverability'.

In 'What I Learned This Week', Ross D recommended the Supercommunicators podcast, from Slate.

G discussed the rise of 'zero-click search'.
