The Library Of The Future?
September 6th, 2009 by ComputerBob
As I’ve written before, many years ago, I predicted that the Internet would eventually turn public libraries into “book mausoleums.”
For almost a decade, I thought that my prediction had come true.
But what I hadn’t anticipated was that many public libraries would start to reinvent themselves into “public living rooms.”
And now comes even more surprising news that a Massachusetts prep school is getting rid of all of its books.
I wonder how much you can change a library before it stops being a library.
