"Into a New World of Librarianship"- I agree wholeheartedly with the author of this article. EVERYTHING should be done (new materials, new technology, programs) with out patrons coming FIRST. Libraries should not buy new books, technology just to look "cool" or be up with the times. The whole nature of our business is and always will be 100% User services focused.
"To better bibliographic services"- I also agree with the author on this article. Metadata and bibliographic data needs to be shared and expanded to outside the library and information services realm. I think our patrons would like to see our OPAC's resemble www.amazon.com or www.barnesandnoble.com .
