The Way

<span>The fast and continuous technological change that is characteristic of the information society we find ourselves in has demonstrable impact on the way librarians go about their business. This paper offers a scenario of technological changes already in the pipeline and yet to come, and how those changes will impact the role of librarians in the future. One of the main concerns of this paper is the continued relevance of information professionals as infomediaries in our future society.</span><div><span style="color: #303030; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div>

In this chapter, we look at library users for indicators of their current and future information-seeking behavior and their information-consumption patterns. We also consider the role of library acquisitions in light of the increasing importance of content as opposed to its carrier. In the following section, we examine and define the concepts of convergence and technological convergence, and what they mean to libraries in light of an emphasis on content and an increasing reliance on technology. Finally, we investigate how convergence is important to libraries now and how it will remain so in the future.

Social Behaviours

This chapter concerns the conceptualization of information society and its social impact. From this point of view it worked like a myth, emphasizing the role of technology and producing some effects on social behaviours. This idea is develop in three main ways. First of all the chapter explains how the myth was born and how it is producing effects. Second, it investigates how it is changing the anthropology of how we are thinking about technology and its development. Finally, it imagines how media education is affected by this process, pointing out some ideas for redesigning its epistemological profile.
