Gruppen repræsenterer biblioteksfolk fra alle verdensdele.
Vor erfaring er at informationsvirksomheden flytter ud på Internettet, og at konkurrence fra andre udbydere stiller krav til den service bibliotekerne vil tilbyde.
Mange er endda begyndt at snakke om Library 3.0
På IFLA-konferencen i Quebec 2008 spørger vi:
"Have we have blown up the reference desk? ..."
- Are there new roles for libraries and librarians in virtual worlds?
- What does it mean to be a virtual librarian and what knowledge base and skills does that librarian need?
- How does real life service link in with virtual / Second Life services and can the same level of service be provided in both environments?
- Will reference staff as gamers be able to connect to and be of relevance to users, or do they stay with their more traditional roles?
- In the mean time what is happening in the real life service? How are services being provided and from where? Can physical and virtual services work side by side?
- Do we need to re-think our purposes and infrastructures?
Har du et bud på dette?
Måske har du endda lyst at ytre dig på konferencen!
