Much more than Books: Reimagining the Library to Provide a 21st Century User Experience.
Libraries are facing a crisis of identity and function due to rapidly developing technology and changing social expectations of how to access information. With digital mediums becoming increasingly popular with today’s modern user, libraries are struggling to keep up.
Thus, this challenges the notion of what a library should be in the 21st century and how they can be transformed to remain as a popular place of learning in this modern age.
