This month’s highlights:

* Guest Forum – This article written by Daniel Maxwell deals with the question of which strategies should an academic library pursue in this technology saturated world. He presents us with two strategic imperatives.

The first is to deliver content in context, while the second is to enable the research and discovery process.  Together, these dual imperatives can provide orienting points in the development of the library’s strategic plan.
