A term I've heard used, most recently at the CSTD conference in Toronto last week, was that of curator. It was presented that learning professionals need to become curators of information. As other responders have commented, information is everywhere and so I would also submit that one of the skills needed is that of curator. Being able to pull relevant information together and present it in an easily accessible manner will become more important. Of course this involves other skills already mentioned such as critical thinking and analysis as well as understanding of learning and learners.

Great post and discussion!
