1. The ALA's Office for Information Technology Policy established a program in 2008 to explore all aspects of the future development of American libraries and provide guidance to the library community. 2. In 2010, the program published a report called "Checking Out the Future: Perspectives from the Library Community on Information Technology and 21st-Century Libraries" which examined issues like how technology is changing information and the role of libraries. 3. The report concluded that as technology advances, libraries must evolve their services and processes to remain relevant by determining user needs, embracing new possibilities, and increasing collaboration both within the library community and with their users.

17. Game as a media Video games are a media unto themselves. “The library profession needs experts in this media, just as we have experts in other media (like books and films).” – 8bitlibrary.com: Game-as-Media & the need for professional reviews

18. “Digital learners will “read” multimedia information as text and image. Literacy will include the ability to multitask, to navigate through different streams of information in addition to processing text… If libraries are to remain central to education processes, their literacy services and programs must evolve to meet the needs of the new digital learners.”– Report: pp. 6-7.

28. Example of Library of Syracuse University “This freed up our beautiful library space to be used in a new way, and allowed us to rethink how a library for a 21st-century secondary school might be constituted. Some have mistakenly supposed that Cushing’s decision was intended to cut costs, but, quite the contrary, this was an investment of expanded resources to provide a new model of a learning commons at the center of an educational community.”– James Tracy

30. “In its mutating role as urban hangout, meeting place and arbiter of information, the public library seems far from spent. This has less to do with the digital world—or the digital word—than with the age-old need for human contact.”– WitoldRybczynski.

31. We need COLLABORATION!

32. “As libraries struggle to stay up to par in the 21st century, our minds stray to technology. But, collaboration...that’s the 21st-century skill that’s needed most.”– Mary Chute, Deputy Director, Library Services, Institute of Museum and Library Services.

36. Conclusions of the report As technology goes on, libraries must evolve their philosophies, missions, and processes. The implementation of technological advances is accomplished most effectively by determining user needs. By embracing the possibilities of the 21st century, librarians can ensure the relevance and value of the services they and their institutions provide.
