A New Golden Age Of College Libraries?

“Far from fading away in the Age of Google, which has begun digitizing millions of books from university and other libraries, and despite the almost universal availability of vast online resources, circulation and visits at college and research libraries are on the rise. Campus librarians now answer more than 72 million reference questions each year — almost twice the attendance at college football games. In other words, this is not the beginning of the end for campus libraries, but the dawn of an exciting new age.”
