I've been noticing over the past month or so that more and more people
are referring to themselves (or others) as Digital Librarians or
Digital Archivists instead of CyberLibrarians or Cybrarians.
Is that because Digital is more professional sounding, or because
Digital is the new trendy word (thanks to Negroponte)?
IOW, will the terms with Digital stay for a while, or will they be
like Cyber and vanish with the next new trendy term?
Just a mid-afternoon thought, I'd get opinions on...
