Exciting improvements throughout the library environmentand service are currently being developed and planned for. This poor effort that you have made at addressing the issues just makes me cringe.
I'm a little embarrassed for you and for the proffession. There is very little here aside from the references to the Geek Side and your prepubescent final solution fantasies. Libraries need to utilize new digital technologies and future mediums to store and transmit knowledge. The stereotypical librarian image and low uptake of services in Public Libraries reflect their failure to move with the times and to address the needs of the community in some areas.
I stand corrected. Having reviewed my poor spelling and looking in the mirror as you suggest I discover that my view is totally erroneous and you are a paragon of good taste whose addition to the point at hand was well made and valuable to the point in hand. _Go back to tubing_
Stereotupes usually arn't true. The libraries I've gone to are extremely high tech. My universities library has a music archive, high speed connection, no filters and has access to it's other branches. It also has access to the library of congress. There's another thing, 1 of the largest compilations of data in the world, the library of congress we are all able to use it. Lastly, my home town has carnegie mellon library which is a MASSIVE library to say the least.
The problem you pose is that since Library Directors aren't "gun ho" for new technology, they aren't giving the directive for library staff to become educated on it.
I don't believe that Library professionals need to be "gung-ho" - that suggests a certain recklessness and technolust.
However, library staff should keep educating themselves on information trends. If you've chosen to work in the information industry, then it's a matter of professional principle to keep yourself informed and educated. And sharing this knowledge means that you can interact with other professionals in evaluating new technologies, and deciding how relevant it really is.

I am a little embarrassed for you because you are trying to be critical and you can't spell.
Look in the mirror before looking at others.
