I like control!
Don't do everything!
1.It's possible to push off work to your patrons2.Know that all of this will cause more work for you3.Your users will get more control (they like that)4.Have enough money as a buffer to provide this level
of service5.Be able to cut funding in other areas to provide
funding in these areas6.Provide a long term plan to allow space, equipment,
and flexibility to change.7.Don't do everything!
How do I get there?
● In the beginning...you just needed books and a building

Then you need a sponsor
You are sustained, but now what?
● Most libraries are here● The original goal is to establish services, but we
need to look beyond that.
● Library becomes reactive● Library becomes proactive
What next?
● Library scans the horizon● The library experiments● Library increases user control● Superpatrons help guide library services
Thank you
