"Checked out a school library lately? You may be in for a shock.
Creaky old card catalogs have given way to computers; massive rows
of encyclopedia volumes have dwindled into single CD-ROMs or
disappeared into online databases. And while books still abound, it's
getting harder and harder to find that other familiar fixture: a
qualified librarian (now known as a "media specialist")."
