Way back in 1993, the internet was…
“headless, anarchic, million-limbed” and “spreading like bread-mold” - Bruce Sterling

• Freedom• Free information and

Libraries are the living internet…
Libraries are connected nodes of information and community exchange that we use to communicate, collaborate, share resources and preserve knowledge.

Beyond the Digital Divide
• Libraries are well-equipped to serve patrons at the most crucial points in technology adoption – during introductory and educational stages and at times when a high-quality, reliable connection is otherwise unavailable
• Internet access is best understood as a spectrum, rather than a simple online vs. offline divide.

Libraries and Information Overload
The more we become overwhelmed with information and gadget overload, the more we need librarians to help us make sense of it all…

Libraries & Teens
• Teens need libraries, but are among the least likely to recognize what they have to offer.
• OCLC study finds that teens and college students consider search engines a better “lifestyle fit” for their information needs.
• While more than 50% described search engines as a perfect information source, just 17% described libraries this way.
• Teenagers are increasingly becoming library immigrants in a land of library natives.

Where Teens and Libraries Meet
Teens Technology Libraries
1. Both use technology to connect to people and information

Where Teens and Libraries Meet
2. Both Teens and Libraries have experienced a great deal of change in a very short period of time:
• Internet connectivity at public libraries rose from
20.9% to essentially 100% in less than 10 years (FSU, “Public Libraries and the Internet 2006”).
• Teens are also in the midst of major changes in identity and expectations.

Where Teens and Libraries Meet
3. Both Teens and Libraries will always know something the other doesn’t know.
• Teens can’t find everything they need to know with Google.
• Libraries can learn from teens who are ambitious internet explorers and often at the leading edge of technology trends.
