This I Believe...All Libraries Should Be Teaching Libraries
Palmer, Catherine
portal: Libraries and the Academy, v11 n1 p575-582 Jan 2011
In this article, I imagine a library that prioritizes teaching users how to find, evaluate, and use information over the traditional library public service activities of collection development, access to materials, and reference services. If I ran the library, all services would support end-user education. (Contains 1 graph and 1 note.)
