Even though the whole world seems to be going digital, don't fret for the future of the library. The future of the academic library is in solid shape, says Jonathan Bengtson, who became just the third head librarian in the 50-year history of University of Victoria last January.
Bengtson arrived with a reputation as a leader in digitizing library collections. What emerges from the process of digitization is not only a different type of library and a different type of librarian, but also a chance to be at the forefront of the issues that the digital realm creates.
