Description
The rapid rate of technological change has outpaced many traditional organizations' responses, sometimes antiquating cherished beliefs and institutions almost overnight. Libraries, museums and any institution with the mission of managing information face a ""digital divide"". How will you and you organization cross the digital divide? In ""Information Imagineering"", editors from LITA and LAMA have assembled some of the opinions from libraries and various related fields to answer the question. These minds meet at the interface, that space - sometimes physical and sometimes virtual - where humans and their technological constructs interact. Dedicated to Paul Evan Peters, a community leader and mentor to many of today's leaders, ""Information Imagineering"" features a wealth of material from contibutors such as Charles W. Bailey Jr., Howard Besser, Martin Kalfatovic, Murray S. Martin, Carol L. Ritzenthaler, David Brin and more.
