Minds Alive explores the enduring role and intrinsic value of
libraries, archives, and public institutions in the digital age.
Featuring international contributors, this volume delves into
libraries and archives as institutions and institutional partners,
the professional responsibilities of librarians and archivists, and
the ways in which librarians and archivists continue to respond to
the networked age, digital culture, and digitization. The endless
possibilities and robust importance of libraries and archives are
at the heart of this optimistic collection. Topics include
transformations in the networked digital age; Indigenous issues and
challenges in custodianship, ownership, and access; the importance
of the harmonization of memory institutions today; and the
overarching significance of libraries and archives in the public
sphere. Libraries and archives - at once public institutions
providing both communal and private havens of discovery - are being
repurposed and transformed in intercultural contexts. Only by
keeping pace with users' changing needs can they continue to
provide the richest resources for an informed citizenry.
