So, yesterday I was talking with a colleague about libraries. And one of the things that I noted was that in talking about the future of libraries, I hadn’t discussed a particular role they could and should play. Advanced pedagogy can be great, but it is wasted on the existing curricula. However, we are seeing more discussion.

We were moving my office back to the front of the house (long story), so we moved a bookcase behind me, with my library. I positioned a couple of lights off to each side, and they reduced (though not eliminated) the glare. It looks good, but…you don’t see much of it anyway.

I used Microsoft Word, and with the styles option was able to meet the rigorous requirements of the library for theses without having to pay someone to type it for me (a major victory in the small battles of academia!). I finally justified the purchase of a Mac II to write my PhD thesis on.

Yes, I check out books from the library and read them. It’s often a gateway to Wikipedia, which I heavily rely on, but a number of times I find other sources that are equally valuable, such as research or practice sites that have some quality inputs. Books are still a major way I learn. Twitter is a go-to.

I managed to create camera-ready material for my thesis (with library restrictions where they’ll take out the ruler to make sure the measurements meet the criteria) in Word back in 1989; I bet I could create camera-ready page-proofs to meet their requirements today.

He told me that they used to ship truck loads of cards to libraries every day. It was quite a while ago when libraries began to put signs on card catalogs telling patrons that they are no longer updating them. I remember often changing topics when I couldn't find enough detail on it in the library. We all know this right?

To put it another way, Gary’s is the one that should be in the research library and on the executive shelf, and hopefully mine is the one that should be on the shelf of the designer and manager. Mine is for people who are thinking about, want to, or have to do mobile. Gary’s is for those who have to decide about it.

I’ve checked out some non-fiction books from the library that I’m reading to expand my abilities, I revamped my website (and continuing to improve it), writing a new article, and I’ve started a new blog series on ID. I very much believe in walking the walk, so I’m investing in my own capability.

I go to libraries, and check out books. And some recent debates have got me thinking about libraries in general, public and university. Libraries democratized access, by aggregating purchasing power. Public libraries provided places to read as well, and librarians were resources to find or ask about particular topics.
