Bringing People Together at the Library:Rural Libraries as "Place"

More and more people are accessing information and resources from home and work computers. Does that mean the physical library will go away? NO WAY! This session talks about the evolving role of the physical library space. Innovative and interesting rural library examples are highlighted.

Originally Presented November 2, 2007 by Cindi Hickey, Continuing Education Librarian and WebJunction Coordinator for the State Library of Kansas.
