GEN,

Dear Group,

My principal recently mentioned to me a Wall Street Journal article that
asserted that online sources and access will soon
make physical libraries obsolete. While I don't think the comment was
aimed at me, I would like some suggestions on a good, brief response for
the next time.  I am in a new building with lots of computers both in
the library and throughout the school, but most of the students and
faculty need help using them productively.

Thanks,

Joanne
