Library 2.0..my thoughts

After reading the views of several librarians regarding the future of libraries, I find myself agreeng most with Rick Anderson of UN-Reno. I agree that we should not have as 'just in case' collection and a 'come to us' attitude. I share his views and have voiced them myself but feel as though I am shouting into the wind. In libraries, change is constant but it is not the dramatic change that we probably need. Many librarians have a mindset that is old-fashioned regardless of how much lip-service they may give to so-called 'forward thinking.' Librarians need to embrace change with their minds and not just go through the motions of change. Real change comes from within.
