Libraries Connect

I just realized that this week is National Library Week. The theme this year is Worlds connect @ your library. The way I see it, libraries are about connecting - connecting to and with resources, services, ideas, people, communities, etc. I see this whole connecting mesh thing in my mind of what libraries can do - the potential of libraries. What do you see when you think of libraries? Speaking of connecting, check out SLA@Pratt and connect with your colleagues.
