A MUST-READ FOR ACADEMIC LIBRARIANS

Here are two articles that every academic librarian must read, ASAP!

First, Changing a Cultural Icon: The Academic Library as a Virtual Destination, by Jerry D. Campbell, CIO and Dean of Libraries at University of Southern California, Los Angeles.

Then read Cindy Trainor's commentary on STLQ: Occasional postings bout issues and concerns of interst (but not limited to) engineering and scitech librarians. Cindy is IT Librarian at Claremont Colleges, California.
