The document contrasts the roles and responsibilities of traditional "Academic Librarians 1.0" with the new paradigm of "Academic Librarians 2.0". Librarians 1.0 focus on enforcing policies, do not trust users, avoid emerging technologies, and prioritize statistics over user needs. Librarians 2.0 embrace questioning practices, enable patrons, communicate effectively, get involved outside the library, listen to stakeholders, encourage colleagues, and keep their skills and knowledge up to date in a changing environment. The document stresses that librarians must develop strategies to continuously learn and adapt to remain relevant.
