what does a library do? (Now?)
“ [O]f what value is a repository of printed content in a world where everything is discovered and available through the computer?  “ The answer is, not nearly as much as today, and not a fraction of what it was twenty years ago. “ - Mike Shatzkin, 2007
Berkeley’s (new) Music Library
not many books  on  music
libraries have been physical things   books :   music : Records > CDs   video : Tape > DVDs
libraries have been oFFLine (not on the network)
libraries have  provided content ...  passively purchased then licensed  please come and use
{but people now}  create engage build transform make their own (||) media
