Library as place

"Libraries should aim to be uplifting, innovative and inspiring
cultural, social and intellectual spaces, encouraging debate and collaboration,
and desirable as places to be in, even in the age of ubiquitous internet
access."
Lynne Brindley, 2006

Sometimes you have those scholarly articles that read themselves. Re-defining the Library, based on a keynote speech presented by Lynne Brindley (the director of the British Lbrary) at a conference in Bielefeld is one of those little gems. Well written, easily read, and filled till the brim with inspiration.
