Today is Tomorrow - Peter Melinchok expressing dismay at his parents’ distorted sense of time

Bangor University considers removing librarians posted by Blake on Thursday January -753 hits Ms Information writes "News from the University of Wales Bangor in the UK. senior management no longer feel that subject librarians / academic liaison librarians are needed in the modern academic library. They have made restructuring proposals which include removing all bar one of the subject librarians and a tier of the library management, including the Head of Bibliographic Services. The university management thinks that technology has 'deskilled' literature searching. As far as I know, this proposal is unprecedented in the United Kingdom. In essence, there will remain 4 professional librarians serving a 'research-led' university of 8,000 plus FTEs and with 8 library sites. These will be the university librarian, cataloguing librarian, acquisitions librarian and Law librarian. Has anything like this happened anywhere that you know of? If so, what have been the effects?

Libraries Remain a Credible Resource in 21 st Century 98% agree with statement, “My … library contains information from credible and known sources.” Note. Digital Library Federation and Council on Library and Information Resources. (2002). Dimensions and Use of the Scholarly Information Environment.

Changing Behaviors Recent Survey: Only 15.7% agreed with the statement “The Internet has not changed the way I use the library.” Note. Digital Library Federation and Council on Library and Information Resources. (2002). Dimensions and Use of the Scholarly Information Environment.

The Internet Goes to College Early data from ethnographic interviews –“I use Google because I heard it searches for more things” (than other sources). –“I believe I can find anything on the Internet. There hasn’t been anything I haven’t been able to find.” –“Because I’m lazy.” –Books have “so much information that no one can go through it all.” –I use “the Internet first is because it is more convenient.” –I go to the library “because that’s what teachers like.” –“Google has gotten me through college.” Source: Steve Jones, The Internet Goes to College, ARL Talk
