Warlick Chapter 1

This chapter talks a lot about information literacy skills. Many of the concepts we read about and discussed this fall during Steve's class were touched on in this chapter. In this chapter the quote "What will our libraries become, when all knowledge is available through personal information devices- anytime, anyplace, a mouse click away?" Throughout the course of this program, I continue to think about this fact. How are our libraries going to look? How can we continue to provide a service to people if they can do it on their own? It is interesting to try and envision our future libraries and recreate the role that traditional librarians have played for over a century.


The good thing is that as you continue to read Warlick, you are able to read ideas and absorb new concepts and suggestions that will help us transform our libraries into 21st century learning areas for all. A place where people can freely access information and contact with other human beings.
