It’s simple really, shift happens, gedoverit
• Users & Communities will continue to be diverse in the extreme• Expectations around timeliness will increase• We will have a foot in both camps for many, many years to come: digital
and physical• Content will (is already) be dominated by non-text (gamification, 3D,
visual, music, video, audio, etc.)• Search will explode with options and one-step, one box search is for
dummies• The single purpose anchored device is dead as a target environment• Devices will focus on social, collaboration, sharing, multimedia, creation
and successful library strategies will align with that• Librarians will need to focus primarily on professional service(s) and
strategic alignment (reduced roles in organizing knowledge and step&fetchit politeness) . . . Service Professionals NOT Servants
• E-Learning, collections and metadata will go to the cloud massively

and the user experience
Libraries are about learning and building communities

• Examples of B&W discussions
• These can sometimes lack professional perspectives, be politically dogmatic and belief driven, and use death symbolic metaphors
• E-books versus Physical Books• Open access versus Proprietary Content• Free versus Fee• Business Models versus Social Models• Apple versus Microsoft PC• Desktop vs. Laptop vs. Tablet vs. Phone• Privacy and Confidentiality
• Make no mistake. I’m not saying the discussions are wrong or taking sides, I just think professionals see colours and shades of gray.

What We Never Really Knew Before 27% of our users are under 18. 59% are female. 29% are college students. 5% are professors and 6% are teachers. On any given day, 35% of our users are there for the very
first time! Only 29% found the databases via the library website. 59% found what they were looking for on their first search. 72% trusted our content more than Google. But, 81% still use Google.
We often believe a lot
that isn’t true.
