My daughter, 14, wants to be a librarian. She plans to run a library 1980's-style. I fear such libraries will be obsolete by the time she attends college. What jobs will be available for her to use similar skills and still find joy? I need to help her see it differently.

Thanks! Hopefully, once high school starts, she'll learn about some of these technologies and understand how much fun using them could be.

Thank you. I'm happy to know it is still a viable degree. The challenge is convincing her that dramatic transitions she's seeing in libraries aren't scary, but exciting.

Thank you for your humorous, yet very informative response, Jim. I will look into the links and opportunities you've mentioned. Finding kindred spirits is a big deal for her. I'd love for her to get involved in #OpenCulture projects. All the best!
