Future of academic libraries

Exploring the future of academic libraries: A definitional approach

From the Journal of academic librarianship, May 2009, Pages 252-259

Abstract
The central argument of the article is that while the building, the collection and the staff were inseparably linked, in a digital environment these facets of the library are diverging. This divergence clouds the process of envisioning a future for the library, but, if properly defined, it is a source of clarity, which sheds light on strategic opportunities.
