The digital revolution is having a profound effect on the world of libraries, books, and the forms of knowledge they imply. Humanists and social scientists are only beginning to become aware that they are experiencing a revolution in the dissemination of knowledge that is comparable to the great revolutions of the past. In early antiquity, clay tablets were replaced by papyrus rolls ; in the fourth century A. D., papyrus rolls gave way to parchment leaves bound in codex ; and, finally, in the Renaissance, printing made huge numbers of books available, with libraries offering them in open stacks rather than chaining manuscripts to the desks as was done in the great monastic libraries of the Middle Ages. We are still exploring the potential ramifications of new techniques for writing and reading ; new modes of storing and distributing data ; new possibilities for acquiring, reconfiguring, and integrating knowledge. Indeed, we cannot yet determine how the new information technologies will affect the most diverse cultural forms and the deepest, social structures. What are the issues and the passions, the anxieties and the fantasies, the projections and the metaphoric renderings - in short, what is the imaginary - in and around the future of the library ? "Future libraries" brings together distinguished lawyers, historians, librarians, computer scientists, linguists, and architects to assess the future of libraries, books, and the printed word in this electronic age.
