Comments on: The future of libraries http://bootstrapping.net/2007/01/17/the-future-of-libraries/ Bootstrapping the web since 1994 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:15:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.11 by: bibliotalkr http://bootstrapping.net/2007/01/17/the-future-of-libraries/#comment-28840 Sun, 30 Sep 2007 21:39:03 +0000 http://bootstrapping.net/2007/01/17/the-future-of-libraries/#comment-28840 [...] Min pointe i oplæget var faktisk at biblioteket sikkert ikke forsvinder fordi vi får mere brugerdrevne tjenester, og at bibliotikaren kan være med til at gøre internettet bedre. Brugerne kan naturligvis selv lave deres egne samlinger og det gør de i rigt mål, udfordringen bliver derfor ikke at få brugerne til at styre bibliotekerne, men rettere at lade brugerne styrke bibliotekerne, og omvendt. Det sker ikke medmindre der kommer nogle mere åbne kontaktfalder end dem vi kender i dag. Som Thomas Madsen-Mygdal, som jeg iøvrigt har lånt et par inspirerende punchslines fra, tidligere har sagt, så er bibliotekerne “nørder i distrubtionsformen: papir”. Bibliotekerne står som jeg ser det overfor mange udfordringer i forhold til at forstå og bruge sociale teknologier i deres service. I særdeleshed skal man alvorligt revidere og genforhandle bruger-relationen. Bibliotekerne har qua deres store og historiske binding til fysisk distribtution dybest set et lettere anstrengt forhold til brugere. Let karikeret kunne man sige, at brugerne meget let bliver mis-brugere. I det fysiske bibliotek er det sociale altså typisk noget negativt, mens det på nettet kan bruges til noget godt. Tænk på google som bliver bedre af at man bruger det, eller last.fm som den ulitmative musik-bibliotikar. Hvad lærer biblioteket af mig når jeg har lånt noget, og hvad kan andre bruge min brug til!

Nice talking to you yesterday! I enjoyed it very much. Just went through this presentation - was curious because you mentioned it. Actually I was talking to one of the socalled "central" libraries (Fyn) through a few years and the move from one mindset to the other was really difficult. It's not easy to redefine your self-image even though it may only be a new form in which you fulfil the same role... Hi Thomas. Nice talking to you yesterday! I enjoyed it very much.

Your message in that regard is btw. very close to what I had to say when Thomas Angermann asked me to take part in a session om the user driven library future... Fair deal.

What I'm saying is simply that trying beats being best. They need to try so much more than they need to be best. Come on - let’s not waste time being offended.

The statement was getting back to the core, back to the basics, back to the original meaning of a library. Don't recall any slides about cutting edge innovation, only that their digital services are designed on a world class level - if you take a look at biblioteket.dk i think both of us knows hundreds of people that could transform that experience substantially. @claus.

As far as I'm concerned it is exactly one of the points of now, that small is good and that experiments are OK. The libraries truly don't need cutting edge innovation. They need to stop hesitating and get out there (to paraphrace T.S. Høeg) I’m digging the phaseshift slide - but not so much the YOU NEED TO BE STATE OF THE ART/cutting edge interface and innovation bit at the end.

Probably the most inspiring and clear cut one I have heard for a few years in the library world. You were the center of all discussion the rest of the day - and I am still thinking about what you said today. I would really like to hear your thoughts again another time in a library context. Was this a one-time only or can the libraries still buy your time for another presentation? :-) That was indeed an exciting and highly relevant presentation.
