Abstract

Libraries have existed for millennia, but today the library field is searching for solid footing in an increasingly fragmented (and increasingly digital) information environment. What is librarianship when it is unmoored from cataloging, books, buildings, and committees? In The Atlas of New Librarianship, R. David Lankes offers a guide to this new landscape for practitioners. He describes a new librarianship based not on books and artifacts but on knowledge and learning; and he suggests a new mission for librarians: to improve society through facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. The vision for a new librarianship must go beyond finding library-related uses for information technology and the Internet; it must provide a durable foundation for the field. Lankes recasts librarianship and library practice using the fundamental concept that knowledge is created though conversation. New librarians approach their work as facilitators of conversation; they seek to enrich, capture, store, and disseminate the conversations of their communities. To help librarians navigate this new terrain, Lankes offers a map, a visual representation of the field that can guide explorations of it; more than 140 Agreements, statements about librarianship that range from relevant theories to examples of practice; and Threads, arrangements of Agreements to explain key ideas, covering such topics as conceptual foundations and skills and values. Agreement Supplements at the end of the book offer expanded discussions. Although it touches on theory as well as practice, the Atlas is meant to be a tool: textbook, conversation guide, platform for social networking, and call to action.Bron : http://mitpress.mit.edu

Abstract

"Libraries have existed for millennia, but today many question their necessity. In an ever more digital and connected world, do we still need places of books in our towns, colleges, or schools? If libraries aren't about books, what are they about? In Expect More, David Lankes, winner of the 2012 ABC-CLIO/Greenwood Award for the Best Book in Library Literature, walks you through what to expect out of your library. Lankes argues that, to thrive, communities need libraries that go beyond bricks and mortar, and beyond books and literature. We need to expect more out of our libraries. They should be places of learning and advocates for our communities in terms of privacy, intellectual property, and economic development. Expect More is a rallying call to communities to raise the bar, and their expectations, for great libraries."--Author's website.

Abstract

De auteur herinnert bibliotheekprofessionals aan hun missie: het verbeteren van de maatschappij door het faciliteren van kenniscreatie in hun gemeenschappen. In dit boek biedt hij gereedschappen, argumentatie, middelen en ideeën om deze missie te kunnen volbrengen. Bibliothecarissen worden erop voorbereid positieve veranderaars in hun gemeenschappen te worden: de zogenaamde community librarians. Andere lezers leren bibliotheken op een nieuwe manier te begrijpen. Het boek legt uit wat de essentie van een bibliotheek inhoudt en biedt praktische adviezen voor het opleiden en trainen van bibliotheekmedewerkers. Zijn inspirerende en uitdagende ideeën helpen bibliothecarissen hun doel te vinden en positieve verandering te bereiken. Samen met hun gemeenschappen (communities) creëren bibliothecarissen nieuwe kennis - en daarmee ?collectie? - als antwoord op actuele maatschappelijke vraagstukken. De bibliotheek is niet langer alleen een gebouw met boeken, maar een actieve beweging die inspringt op de vragen die leven in de gemeenschap.(https://www.cubiss.nl/shop/veldgids-voor-nieuw-bibliotheekwerk-david-lankes)
