Future of Librar*
October 7th, 2007Joel Garreau - “Print technology made bookstores and libraries ubiquitous. Now that the Internet’s Amazon delivers, however, half of all U.S. independent bookstores have disappeared and the booksellers that thrive have morphed. They are now centered on their cafes, couches and cappuccino machines. They strive to become not simply warehouses but experience places.” (via)
