Ter attendering op vrijdag, de laatste Amerikaanse hit.
Kunnen we met een goed gevoel het weekend in :).
Amazon Starred Review uit Publishers weekly.
In an information age full of Google-powered searches, free-by-Bittorrent
media downloads and Wiki-powered knowledge databases, the librarian may seem
like an antiquated concept. Author and editor Johnson (The Dead Beat) is
here to reverse that notion with a topical, witty study of the vital ways
modern librarians uphold their traditional roles as educators, archivists,
and curators of a community legacy. Illuminating the state of the modern
librarian with humor and authority, Johnson showcases librarians working on
the cutting edge of virtual reality simulations, guarding the Constitution
and redefining information services-as well as working hard to serve and
satisfy readers, making this volume a bit guilty of long-form reader
flattery. Johnson also makes the important case for libraries-the
brick-and-mortar kind-as an irreplaceable bridge crossing economic community
divides. Johnson's wry report is a must-read for anyone who's used a library
in the past quarter century.
