The Enduring Library: Technology, Tradition, and the Quest for Balance

Exploring both opportunities and perils, Gorman points the way to:
- Integrating technology into long-and short-term goals
- Rethinking reference work, to direct users to the highest quality sources available
- Revamping cataloging through technology to improve user access
- Reinvigorating the library's role in promoting literacy
- Relieving techno-stress to achieve peace of mind, harmony, and stability
For those willing to accept the challenges and opportunities that present themselves to librarians all around the world, this manifesto will help you strike a balance between the ideas of technology dominance and the tradition preservation.
