More movement towards the bookless library?

by Derek Morrison, 26 September 2010

I’ve been catching up on my podcast listening and came across this one from NPR’s Morning Edition titled Stanford Ushers in the Age of Bookless Libraries. A transcript is available but the story is still well worth a listen. With the increasing use of mobile devices, ebook readers, and online feeder services the very concept of what is a library and what is a librarian, indeed what is a student and what is a teacher, will be open to question. A factor I’ve partially addressed in my previous epublishing postings and in my concept of the e-learning “filling station”.
