This is for some presentations I'm doing for the Ohio Library Council 2013 conferences in Toledo and Independence. I'm discussing how social media will effect the way librarians interact with patrons.

1. “Here, then, is the point at which I see the new
mission of the librarian rise up incomparably
higher than all those preceding. Up until the
present, the librarian has been principally
occupied with the book as a thing, as a material
object. From now on he must give his attention
to the book as a living function. He must
become a policeman, master of the raging
book.”
Spanish philosopher José Ortega y Gasset
1934

2. “Studies show that patrons are
more engaged with libraries when
they have a relationship with a
librarian,”
- Lisa Arnold, who manages
grants and library programs for
the Allen foundation.

3. “The technology opportunities are
additive. The librarian should
remain at the center.”

Family Foundation vice president

5. What about bookless libraries?
Most content is simply not
available digitally to license and
purchase.
But should libraries be about
books at?

6. Needs that aren’t being filled:
• People don’t know how to search
smartly.
• People don’t understand social media
privacy.
• People don’t understand Internet
safety issues for their families.
