(R)evolution of the Librarian

Anne Christie from BioSci recently sent me this interesting article from the New York Times about young up and coming librarians. It is called A Hipper Crowd of Shushers

I was convinced that library school was becoming outdated/obsolete before reading this article. It reminds me why we are doing this Learning 2.0 activity. All these new technologies are the things that are going to keep libraries alive for future generations. Librarians must learn to adapt to our ever-changing world of technology. Otherwise they will be left behind.
