This course covers the development of libraries and the roles these institutions play within their service communities. Increasingly, libraries of all kinds have come to play a social role as social actors, change agents, and as "places", both physical and virtual, that enable to development of social capital. This course examines the development of libraries, information & communication technologies (ICTs), and the role of information access in the many societal "revolutions" of human history, with emphasis on the societal impact of library growth in the United States. Current trends and problems are also examined from a societal and historical perspective. |
