List the core values which form the foundation of librarianship. Then discuss how these values can be reflected in a library's services, words, and environment. If you wish, you may select a type of library, not a specific library, as the context for your discussion. Modern information systems do not operate in isolation.
Information can be, and often is, shared on a global scale.
Librarians and information users routinely access information from systems that are geographically remote. Discuss the role of standards and protocols in this process. Advances in electronic information technologies, such as web technologies, telecommunications, digital technology, and interactive multimedia, have presented opportunities to libraries as well as challenges. Describe how libraries and librarians have responded to new information technologies and discuss what future libraries will be like and what functions future libraries will perform. Discuss why end-user instruction in library and information skills is becoming increasingly important.
