The Future of the Library

Epochal changes in the creation and delivery of information and in communication challenge everything we know about teaching, learning, and scholarship. To the academy of tomorrow, the traditional role of library and technology organizations has little value. To continue to be relevant and helpful to our universities missions, library and technology leaders must understand the changes taking place in the world around them, chart new strategic directions, retool their organizations to meet these new challenges, and lead their staff and communities in defining what teaching, learning, and scholarship are and will become.

The presenters will lead attendees in an interactive review of the fluid landscape of the changing world of libraries, IT, and higher education. We will collectively identify the challenges we face, propose solutions, and chart strategic directions, drawing in particular on our experiences with leading successful merged information service organizations.

Als aanvulling op dit verhaal: Vanuit een werkgroep zijn we Xplora2.0 aan het onderzoeken, ofwel de betekenis van Xplora en gebruik van informatiebronnen in de toekomst. Centraal staat dan participatie, communicatie, verbinding, toegang etc. Misschien aardige stof voor een dinsdagochtend. De discusse leeft in ieder geval!
