Talking about Technology Adoption in the Public Library is available for download from The Alberta Library website: http://www.thealbertalibrary.ab.ca/. If you follow the link, there will be a heading entitled, "TAL News." Below that heading you will find an item entitled, "Download Report: Talking about technology adoption in the public library." Click on that link and you will come to the PDF document.
The report discusses some implications for public libraries of the Alberta SuperNet and other broadband networks in Canada. Because the public library is an endpoint for the SuperNet in hundreds of Alberta communities, many new opportunities exist for community uses of the library. The conclusions of the report point to the need for continuing discussions with public libraries about their changing mandate in an era of abundant online information.
The report has been prepared as part of two projects funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
