Revolution without Burning Books Helen Milner @helenmilner Revolution: Without Burning Books Helen Milner @helenmilner
“ In terms of size, arrangement and catalogues, the conventional library has reached an organisational and financial impasse. Coincidentally there has emerged a pre-emptive new technology for the storage, handling and transmission of information, potentially better suited to the convenience of users. Libraries may disappear like the dinosaurs; or they may, by returning to first principles, be able to adapt and successfully survive.” James Thompson, (1983)  "The end of libraries"
