The writer considers how information technology has been employed to date and ways to use it more effectively in the future. He uses the library as an example of how an institution has been altered by the forces of new technology. He outlines the diverse forms of information technology that libraries have used for many years; the lessons that libraries have learned from adopting such new technology; the lessons that librarians have learned about how to introduce new processes to the public, especially older people; examples of programs and training for older people; how libraries can succeed in offering the new information technology to people of all ages; and the longstanding and complementary relationship between libraries and older people. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
