Biblioteket vs Google

Hos Phil Bradley, informationsspecialist och lite av internetguru hittade jag den här:

Librarians are there:

To help, aid, assist. To teach, collate, enthuse. To catalogue, index, arrange, organise. To find, discover, promote, display. To interest, intrigue, amuse and amaze. To instill wonder. To help children, adults, old people, the underprivileged, the rich, the poor, those with voices and those without. To protect resources, to archive them, to store them, to save them for the future. To provide differing viewpoints, to engender thought, conversation, research, fun. To provide the best answer possible, to match the answer to the enquirer, to provide just enough information without overwhelming the user, but enough to always help. To better a local community, a company, a school, a college, an organisation, a country, the world.

Google is there:

To make money.

Kan inte låta bli att mysa lite över den, och funderar på om det inte vore en kul idé att hänga upp den texten ovanför de publika datorerna på jobbet… 😉
