News on the Library Front

Librarians are always on the cutting edge. Whatever the cutting edge is we're there. New technology and ways of applying it to help students, we're there. Innovative new approaches, we're. The stories below are just a little showcase of what dedicated Information Professionals are doing.

The cutting edge here is in the green and renewable transportation employed by this columbian librarian to get books to rural villages with little to no main roads.

New Reference Technology
The Librarians at this public library are employing the latest in renewable, self regenerating reference sources.

Democratization of Literature
And finally in this last story of literature and dark times, a new literary form has worked its way from the masses up into the library.
