Nick Carr has an interesting take on Google as the "middleman", how it has sort of stolen that role from the newspapers. Funny, I was just talking about newspapers and libraries as "middleman" organizations threatened by the Internet in a recent post.
I'm not sure I agree with his prescription for the news business.
According to Robin Murray, libraries are transitioning from an acquire-catalog-circulate model to one that could be described as synthesize-specialize-mobilize. Discuss.
