THE FUTURE LIBRARY: PHYSICAL+VIRTUAL

 

Join us for an open-ended discovery of the Physical + Virtual Library, a layered concept.

 

... a physical place that contains a virtual environment

 

... smart workstations and expert librarians

 

... resources in all formats that support teaching, learning and research

 

... access to digital tools for search and discovery, from wikis to high definition video conferencing

 

... a space (part Starbucks, part Star Trek) that embraces the physical, social and educational patterns critical to these settings
