Here's some food for thought. We recently discussed how educators seem to be taking librarians and libraries for granted, even though we are at the forefront of learning, using AND teaching the technology which they assume is able to replace us so easily.
Esther Kustanowitz, who recently attended CAJE, wrote an opinion piece about how today's educators seem to be less tech-savvy than the kids they're teaching. Maybe libraries can be a space to help bridge that gap and librarians the people to help them out --- IF the educators accept that they need our help.
