The librarians of today are helping to shape the future, by taking advantage of every tool and technology around them. They are empowering their communities, training job seekers, and working side by side with inventors. The librarians of today are radical positive change agents in classrooms, board rooms, and legislative chambers. They are crowdsourcing knowledge, building new search engines, and making it possible for you to find what you need, no matter where you – or the information streams – are.
Today's new librarians are not threatened or made obsolete by the Internet or technology; instead they are using everything at their disposal to shape the world around you — often without you even noticing.
