International Herald Tribune has a Very Interesting Story on the future of the public library.
They say Yahoo and other information Web sites have taken over many of the functions of public libraries. A great deal of information is not accessible, because it is in libraries, and not on the internet which is a much more effective means of accessing information.
So what to do?
Each library would be responsible for maintaining and updating detailed Web sites in one or more narrow subjects, and this would be available on the internet.
This will need a national task force to figure out and Laura Bush would be perfect for the job.
