A few comments over the past 2 weeks have raised questions about the importance of learning about these new technologies. Now is good time to revisit that question.

The purpose of this project is to introduce some of the technology that is a result of those trends, to encourage you to engage in a process of change, and to consider the possibilities for libraries and how we interact with our communities.
