The first article titled " Away from Icebergs" really opened my eyes to what a library needs to become. If I understand the reading correctly, a library is no longer the only source of information, but is a source to help us collect our information from sources other than a traditional library. It's sort of like ordering many different products from one source on the internet, such as amazon.com. I love this thought!
The idea that a library is a life in itself I found poignent and inviting. How many times have I retreated to the library to find a calm and quiet place to focus on reading and information related tasks? Too many to count. Even when my son attends story time at our local library, I enjoy the atmosphere and learning opportunities created by the librarians and library aids.
Ahh....warm fuzzies and hot chocolate for libraries!
