Week 6 - discovery resources

I agree with Tom's statement that we are moving to a digital lifestyle. Look at iphone's they are great lifestyle option for staying connected.

Rick Anderson's article talking about a "just in case" print collection is a new way of looking at what might happen to Auckland Cities collection in the future, but I think we are still a long way off see the print material becoming "just in case" (quote 2010).

Michael Stephen touches on a few good points, I think Libraries should be adding a huge amount of content to the web. Just over ten years ago people complained about content on the web being unreliable, now for many people it's our main source of information. Libraries play an important roll in our physical world providing information, they can also help our online world share reliable information.
