library 2.0

I thought the article "Away from the icebergs," by OCLC's Rick Anderson was informative. He proposes three potential icebergs for libraries.
1. 'The “just in case” collection"
2. "Reliance on user education "
3. "The “come to us” model of library service"
Libraries are not a place for dusty unused books, but will be needed to provide easy access to the information that's out there where and when the patrons need it. "Into a new world of librarianship," by Michael Stephens is also a good article. The new Librarian will need to be prepared for and to spot information trends, be selective with those trends and quick about implementing them.
