Web 2.0 and Library 2.0. Resistance if futile. Assimilation is coming. Anyone who thinks that libraries will remain as they always have is at the very least fooling themselves.
Evolution is occuring rapidly and many are finding it difficult to keep up. 23 Things is just the beginning of our education into assisting customers in a new age of libraries. I think many think that they need to know how to fix a printer when it goes down or repair Horizon when it's not working properly. That's what LTS does. Our responsibility is to be familiar with technology that further assists our customers. Computers will not replace us. There is no need to fear something that will increase our productivity. We don't have to know everything as it pertains to technology, we just need to know how and where to find the answers.
Isn't that what we've always done?
