Topic: The Future of Public Libraries
Topic type: General
Current work being done in Australia about the future of public libraries. While the report isn't out yet, but due any day, what I have found on the net so far is quite inspiring.
The exercise is based around a scenario matrix, from which 4 possible scenarios are derived.
- Scenario 1 : The Silent Spring
- Scenario 2: The Rise of the Creative Class
- Scenario 3: Future Shock
- Scenario4 : Being Digital.
I have made each of these scenarios related topics so we discuss are reaction to the scenarios.
The good folk doing the work have shared their slides as well (I love librarians:)
