Abstract:
Posits that libraries have planned ahead and taken their services to where users require them most rather than becoming too insular or denying users the chance to learn in a modern environment using virtual reference services, for instance. Contends that librarians need to be proactive and to think creatively about delivery of service – perhaps moving from behind a desk to help students at computers when they are in need.
