	abstract = {Keller, Reich, and Herkovic debunk the common conception that libraries are approaching their demise. They argue that this perception is grounded in a misunderstanding about the role of the contemporary library. Traditionally, the role of the library has been to use information technology tools to serve information workers/seekers. While some people argue that libraries and librarians can exist without physical spaces, Keller, Reich, and Herkovic oppose this viewpoint. Keller, Reich, and Herkovic see libraries becoming more about access and less about ownership as information moves to the electronic form. They draw on the example of LOCKSS, implemented at Stanford University, a model of role of the contemporary library. LOCKSS is a cache of e-journals that allows libraries to create, manage, and maintain the content - instead of mere access. This means that the library has control over the content directly instead of through a publisher. Keller, Reich, and Herkovic conclude by arguing that more tools like LOCKSS - that allow the sourcing, evaluating, and preserving of content - are needed. },
