The always outspoken Crawford challenges popular prognostications, asserting that the complex mix of technologies projects no clear path to the future and that people use technology in unexpected ways." "In today's competitive funding environment, digital dreams of virtual libraries pose the real threat of misguided physical and budgetary planning. Crawford's cogent arguments will help you articulate your own viewpoint to administrators, staff, or users who claim that the virtual library will do it all for less. He explores the roles of libraries and the reasons people use libraries. He helps you make choices among the ever shifting, complex combinations of digital and analog resources." "Being Analog celebrates the remarkable results professional librarianship has achieved in sensibly combining human intelligence and computer power. It points the way to a real world where flexible libraries support today's services and resources while accommodating tomorrow's changes."--Jacket 546 English. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - Worldwide 650 0 Library science|zUnited States. 650 0 Libraries|zUnited States|xSpecial collections|xElectronic information resources. 650 0 Libraries|zUnited States|xData processing. 650 0 Library science. 650 0 Libraries. 650 0 Digital libraries. 650 7 library science.|2aat 650 7 libraries (buildings)|2aat 650 7 computers.|2aat 650 7 LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES|xLibrary & Information Science |xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Libraries.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00997341 650 7 Digital libraries.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00893704 650 7 Libraries|xData processing.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00997385 650 7 Libraries|xSpecial collections|xElectronic information resources.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00997461 650 7 Library science.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00997916 650 12 Library Science 650 17 Bibliotheken.|2gtt 650 17 Informatievoorziening.|2gtt 650 17 Bibliotheekgebruikers.|2gtt 650 17 Digitale bibliotheken.|2gtt 650 17 Vernieuwing.|2gtt 651 2 United States 650 22 Libraries 650 22 Libraries|xtrends 650 22 Computers 650 22 Libraries, Digital 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 856 40 |uhttp://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true& scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=45140&authtype=ip,sso& custid=s4601812|zAccess ebook from here
