Week 6 #15

Libraries have certainly changed and will continue to do so in the future. Their purpose will still be to help users find information but the ways in which they do this will be totally different. Libraries and librarians will need to adapt and change to fulfill the needs and wants of their patrons. Technology will play such an important part in the services offered and the ways in which librarians work with their staff and their users. Perhaps the most important point of all of the articles is the ability of the librarian to listen to the users, to try to learn as much as they can about advancing technologies and their impact on services and to be able to adapt and change as these technologies change.
