John Battelle hat Michael Wesch interviewt, in dessen Video über das Web 2.0 sich alle Biblio- und Edublogger spontan verliebt hatten. Wesch, Ethnologe an der Kansas State University, hat, wie kaum anders zu erwarten, eine pfiffige Ultrakurzeinschätzung der Bibliotheksentwicklung im Web-2.0-Kontext parat:"So I think there will always be a demand for books, but nonetheless libraries are changing ... I think we are already seeing a shift in that we are beginning to recognize that the most valuable resource in the library is not the books or physical resources but the librarians themselves. They are information professionals and are needed more than ever, even as their traditional roles seem to be disappearing."
