The document discusses several topics related to the roles of information professionals in a digital world, including: 1) Information professionals need to reexamine their purpose and roles given changes in technology and society, and may need to take on new functions like curating digital collections and providing digital reference services. 2) There is debate around what defines a "digital librarian" and whether these roles are simply extensions of existing librarian work or require new skills like web publishing and multimedia indexing. 3) Accessing information through physical documents is no longer adequate; information professionals must focus on developing skills and knowledge to help others make sense of information in a digital environment.
