You might think the library is a dinosaur, pushed out of existence by free web-based resources and the growing popularity of social networking sites. But the library at Western Seminary Sacramento has been quietly reinventing itself to stay relevant in the digital age – opening up its contents to online access via the web-based library catalog and research databases (magazines, journals and e-books), leveraging Web 2.0 software tools like RSS feeds, user comments, reader forums, online reference chat, and mobile access to information you need at your fingertips. Did I mention the library is wireless?
We ARE the “little library that could”. If it’s been a while since you’ve visited the library, I invite you to stop by. Once the classrooms move, we’ll literally be one step away. So there’s no reason not to visit.
This is not your parent’s library any more!
