Eine Zusammenfassung eines interessanten – leider proprietären – Artikels aus Information Outlook erschien in Information Outlook: “We are shifting from people who manage collections to people who manage connections,” schreibt Deb Schwarz in ihrem Artikel und arbeitet drei Punkte heraus:
- The connected librarian is about building and strengthening relationships, both within and outside the profession as well as personal and virtual.
- The connected librarian creates and maintains a linkage to time—past, present, and future.
- The connected librarian links people to increasingly diverse types and voluminous amounts of information.
