    Abstract: Es geht David Lankes, Gewinner des ABC Clio Preises der besten Bibliotheksliteratur 2012 um Menschen, Gemeinschaften und Bibliothekare. Nicht Bestandsentwicklung, Serviceleistung oder Informationsvermittlung machen die Bibliothek zu einem Mittelpunkt ihrer Stadt, Hochschule Organisation oder Community sondern Kommunikation und Gespräch zwischen ihren Mitgliedern. Was braucht die Community,mit wem verbindet sie sich zu einem Netzwerk? Wie sind alle zu aktivieren in der zunehmend komplexer werdenden digitalen Gesellschaft ? Der Bibliothekar, die Bibliothekarin, auf welcher Hierachieebene, bei welcher Aufgabe und in welcher Art von Bibliothek auch immer, kann einer der wichtigsten Aufgaben in der vernetzten Gesellschaft übernehmen, die Förderung der Kommunikation, des Wissens – und Erfahrungsaustausches, nicht um dieser zu dienen als sogenannte Infrastruktur, sondern um sie aktiv weiter zu entwickeln. Dazu braucht es großartige Bibliotheken, die es auch schon gibt, wie Lankes zeigt. Ein Buch in die Hand aller Kultur und Bildungspolitiker und jeden Bibliothekars oder Bibliothekarin, damit er oder sie endlich weiß, was für eine wunderbare Institution die Gesellschaft mit ihrer Bibliothek hat. Viele Praxisbeispiele aus Gegenwart und Geschichte, ,mit Humor und leicht geschrieben, informativ, spannend und überzeugend – ein weltweiter Bestseller (2.Auflage) mittlerweile in mehreren Sprachen.

    Abstract: This book offers a guide for librarians who see their profession as a chance to make a positive difference in their communities -- librarians who recognize that it is no longer enough to stand behind a desk waiting to serve. R. David Lankes, author of The Atlas of New Librarianship, reminds librarians of their mission: to improve society by facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. In this book, he provides tools, arguments, resources, and ideas for fulfilling this mission. Librarians will be prepared to become radical positive change agents in their communities, and other readers will learn to understand libraries in a new way. The librarians of Ferguson, Missouri, famously became positive change agents in August 2014 when they opened library doors when schools were closed because of civil unrest after the shooting of an unarmed teen by police. Working with other local organizations, they provided children and their parents a space for learning, lunch, and peace. But other libraries serve other communities -- students, faculty, scholars, law firms -- in other ways. All libraries are about community, writes Lankes; that is just librarianship. In concise chapters, Lankes addresses the mission of libraries and explains what constitutes a library. He offers practical advice for librarian training; provides teaching notes for each chapter; and answers "Frequently Argued Questions" about the new librarianship.

    Abstract: Many of what we think of as Information Age tools and media – computers, cell phones, the internet, encryption, and more – evolved directly out of modern warfare. These tools started with World War I (which began not with arms, but with England cutting off underwater cables to Germany and isolating it), accelerated through World War II and the Cold War, and now play a center role in both declared and non-declared conflicts like election interference and cyberbattles. We buy phones and smart speakers because they are new and unlock great potential. Voice assistants like Siri and Alexa help us do our work and answer that one piece of trivia that bugs us. Yet these devices are data gatherers. They collect, repackage, and monetize our questions, purchases, photographs, web surfing to form a data industry now larger than the oil industry. Well over 100 years ago the data industry put in place a business model that trades our attention for news and entertainment. That model has evolved into a complex art and science of message targeting and content ownership that has splintered communities while simultaneously concentrating media ownership to a few massive corporations. Forged in War takes a critical look at the systems we use and how we ended up in a society that values data over personal liberty and commerce over the public good. It tells a compelling and previously story of how our ideas of information and knowledge reflect the century of war that has militarized our worldview. Author David Lankes’s work has been funded by organizations such as The MacArthur Foundation, The Institute for Library and Museum Services, NASA, The U.S. Department of Education, The U.S. Department of Defense, The National Science Foundation, and The U.S. State Department. This, his latest book will help all of us learn how war has shaped our world and how to begin to create an agenda to stand down weaponized data and a media that seeks to own our personal, even intimate data like one owns a gold mine.
