Editorial: Singularity-Are We There, Yet?

摘要

In my last column, I wrote about two books-'Nicholas Carr's The Shallows and William Powers' Hamlet's Blackberry-relating to learning in the always-on, always connected environment of "screens."1 Since then, two additional works have come to my attention. While I won't be able to do them justice in the space I have here, they deserve careful consideration and open discussion by those of us in the library community.
