The document discusses many potential disruptions and shifts that libraries may face in the future, including:
- All content moving to digital formats and subscription models
- Books becoming "beyond text" with embedded multimedia
- Search and discovery becoming ubiquitous through open metadata APIs
- Learning moving increasingly to online formats like MOOCs
- Everything existing in the cloud for delivery to any device
It argues that for libraries to remain relevant they must focus on transformational services like learning spaces, makerspaces, and scaling up training initiatives to support online and blended learning. Libraries also need to focus on partnerships, consortia, and operating at a larger scale to effectively support 21st century needs.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

25. It’s simple really, shift happens, gedoverit
• Learners & Communities will continue to be diverse in the extreme –
especially on learning styles
• A foot in both camps for many, many years to come: digital and physical
• Content is already be dominated by non-text (gamification, 3D, graphics,
numeric, visual, music, video, audio, etc.)
• Search will explode with more options and one-step, one box search is
for dummies not professionally educated folks
• The single purpose anchored device is already dead as a target
• Devices will focus on social, collaboration, sharing, learning, multimedia,
creation and successful library strategies must align with that
• Librarians will need to focus primarily on transformational librarianship
and strategic alignment with curriculum
• Systems, E-Learning, collections and metadata will go to the cloud
massively
26. Library Megatrends
It doesn’t take a genius to see that librarian skills
and competencies applied to the trends and issues
in our communities can help in very strategic ways
– social, economic, creative, and discovery impacts.
27. Public Libraries
• Are you a librarian or an educator?
• Are you a support or mission-critical?
• Your business is community impact and learning
(they’re different)
• Your new competitors are non-traditional
• Renewed advocacy has moved from apple pie to
influencing and selling the value and impact of
librarians
• Library staff competencies need a plateau upgrade –
consultation, relationship, influence, educating . . .
33. Libraries core skill is not
delivering information
Libraries improve the
quality of the question
and the user experience
Learning Libraries are about
building life competencies

Daily and Future
52. • If all users are ubiquitously connected with
broadband, have downloading skills for books
and movies, own smartphones, whither
libraries?
• What about the ‘digital divide’?
• If the school system (K-12 and HigherEd)
changes radically …?
53. • What if all music, audiobooks, and video
moved to streaming formats by 2018?
• What if the DVD and CD go the way of vinyl,
VHS, and cassettes?
54. • What if all books are digital?
• What if book services move to a subscription
model of unlimited use for $7/month?
• What about next generation e-books?
55. • What if all books are ‘beyond text’?
• The NextGen Textbook…
• Can we support books with embedded video,
adaptive technologies, audio, updating,
software tools, assessments, web-links, etc.
• Ask ourselves about archiving and
preservation – the record
56. • Are you positioned at the lesson level?
• Could your library support all curricula and
distance education?
• Have you catalogued the learning
opportunities on the web? (Khan Academy,
Coursera, Udacity, edX, MIT, Harvard, MOOCs,
YouTube, Learn4All (ed2go), …)
57. •

•
Could your library support real e-learning
Is EVERY staff member fluent in your LMS and the
needs of supporting hybrid or total distance
learning?
By the way – nearly all learning is distance
learning from the perspective of the library and
user.
58. • Could your library support any kind of mobile
device? (mCobiss)
• Are you fully ready to deliver, agnostically to
desktops, laptops, tablets, phablets,
smartphones, televisions, appliances, at a
much higher level?
59. • Are you prepared for new forms of content?
• Real multimedia? 3D objects and databases?
Holographics? Enhanced media?
• Embedded assessment and tracking tools?
• Can you be ready for makerspaces, creative
spaces, writing labs, business and start-up
incubators, etc.
• Can you publish for your community?
60. • What kinds of learning spaces are needed in
the future?
• Can you support real learning spaces,
community meeting spaces, performance
spaces, maker spaces, real advisory spaces,
true relationship, collaboration, and
consultation management . . .? In a virtual
space?
62. • What if everything was in the cloud?
(software, databases, metadata, content . . .)
• What would you do with those system skills
on staff?
• What if all metadata and content discovery is
freely available using open APIs through the
OCLC WorldShare vault and the Digital Public
Library of America / Europeana vault of open
and free metadata?
63. • What if search immersive resource discovery
becomes as ubiquitous as search engines?
• Can they find as well as search?
• Are your training sessions hitting 100% of
students?
• Are they aligned with workflow or
transactions?
64. Definitions
Discovery
Search – known item retrieval
Topical or Subject Search
Research
Immersive Learning
Assembly
Two step discovery: discover, searching, finding,
use
• The pressure is ON for librarians to scale up their
information fluency training initiatives
