Why librarians still matter in the internet age  
 
Greg Hill, director of Fairbanks North Star Borough libraries, discusses the flood of information available on the internet, and mentions that this means job security for librarians and information professionals. All true enough, although nothing we haven't seen before - I just wish there were more of these articles written by non-librarians - at the moment it seems like the converted preaching to themselves. One saving grace is that the audience are non-librarians, and for personal reasons I'm tickled to find that "corybantic" is a word....
