What do you get when you cross these two things?

THE 21ST CENTURY LIBRARIAN, EVEN MORE THAN THE CLASSROOM TEACHER, SHAPES THE INQUISITIVE NATURE OF THE WORLD

I THINK THE BIGGEST SHIFT IN MOVING FROM A "MODERN" (20TH CENTURY) TO A 21ST CENTURY LIBRARY IS THE PHILOSOPHY UNDERGIRDING ALL WE DO. AS WITH THE BROADER CULTURE AND THE INTERNET, WE RECOGNIZE THAT THE SERVICES AND SUPPORT OF A LIBRARY ARE PARTICIPATORY

-- Janie Pickett, librarian
