This document discusses evolving technologies used in libraries and how they are changing definitions of libraries. It outlines technologies like blogs, wikis, podcasts, RSS feeds, web conferencing, instant messaging, and social networking that libraries employ. Emerging technologies discussed include QR codes, e-readers, tablet computers, and web-scale discovery systems that provide unified search across library resources. The document argues that technology will continue driving changes in libraries and influence careers.
