Week 6 Thing 15

Rick Anderson's article "Away From the Icebergs" presented a doom and gloom future for the library world unless some drastic changes were made. I think that most of us recognize the need for change but Anderson's article was more about what we are doing wrong. He offered no concrete examples of what some systems maybe be doing that is right.

We still need relevant print collections for the patrons who are not comfortable in this digital age. I have seen adults from 21 to 75 who are very much uncomfortable using computers. They are still our patrons and we still have to maintain a way to assist them.
