Week 6 Thing 15

I read all the articles on Libraries 2.0 and I just hope I like the library of the future as much as I do our present library. I hope we do not become so busy with technology that we forget to take care of our present customers - many of whom show no interest what so ever in technology. I hope we always have room for actual books, maybe not the “just in case collection” Rick Anderson discussed in the “Tip of the Iceberg,” but books that customers can checkout and actually hold in their hands, in addition to all the electronic resources available for our customer’s use.
That said, I think we should develop a webpage interface that customers can bring up on their cell phones and other mobile devices so our library services will be available wherever our customers happen to be.
