Eine Bushaltestelle in der Bibliothek

Eine Bushaltestelle in der Bibliothek? Ja, das ist Dank dem Elektrobus der Firma Volvo möglich. Um das näher zu demonstrieren wurde eine Pop-Up-Bibliothek geschaffen, in welcher der Bus hält. Es handelte sich um eine echte Bibliothek, die zum Verbund der Stadtbibliothek Gothenburggehört. Sie befand sich am Eingang des FrihamnenHafen während des Volvo Ocean Race.

[Zitat] Unkommentiert – 2014

I have always been madly in love with librarians, a noble profession of dedication of the highest order. In my long career as an author, librarians have been integral to my writing process. They have provided assistance in research and additional support. Even something as basic as a Google search, while an essential tool for an author, is not as enjoyable and effective as working alongside a knowledgeable librarian. Librarians also offer the public a fantastic filter and provide them with books that are the most meaningful to both the community as a whole, and to those dedicated readers, regardless of income, for whom the pursuit of entertainment, insight, and knowledge through books, is as essential as the air we breathe.” Warren Adler

[Zitat] Unkommentiert – 2014

“The library is being reinvented in response to the explosion of information and knowledge, promiscuous budget cuts in the name of austerity, new technology, and changing needs. Who knows where the emerging new commons will take us? But Robert Dawson shows us in this collection what is at stake: when a library is open, no matter its size or shape, democracy is open, too.” Bill Moyers
