Hi. Here's a brief video clip CBS news recently did on changes libraries
(with a focus on public and academic) are making in order to survive.
For the most part it shows exciting ways libraries are improving.
I cringed, though, when the host introducing the piece said "Back in the
twentieth century, a library card was your ticket to read everything ever
published, now you can do that on the Internet, of course".
