John Blyberg gave a presentation at the 2009 LITA Camp about the ecology of information in a digital age. Some key points from the presentation include:
- Data is being created constantly and rapidly through the Internet, but it is only useful when understood in context.
- As information becomes more complex, there are more opportunities to understand it within different contexts.
- 21st century librarianship involves information architecture and organizing information to make it accessible from anywhere through any device.
- Users need to be able to easily find and access information, so retrieval, speed, and seamless user experiences are important considerations.
