Librarians in the digital age and an infographic round-up

The USC Master of Library and Information Management program recently published, Librarians in the Digital Age,  an infographic that describes what librarians and library services look like today and may serve as motivation for young people to consider library school at USC and beyond.

I spoke with Jaclyn Lambert, who worked with the University of Southern California’s library science team to create the advocacy vehicle.

Jaclyn shared that the goal was to create an overview

This project was an eye-opening affirmation to the necessities to support libraries and librarians to continue to be pillars in their communities, especially critical in the digital age.  With the help of innovation, re-imagination and vision, libraries are embracing new technologies while creating dynamic community centers filled with life. They are centers of creativity, research and collaboration…and they are free.
