Really? That’s scary.

Library missions are broad
ALA Strategic Plan 2010-2015ALA provides leadership in the transformation of libraries and library services in a dynamic and increasingly global digital information environment.
Big Audacious Goal: ALA builds a world where libraries, both physical and virtual, are central to life-long discovery and learning and where everyone is a library user.
Libraries collaborate effectively with each other, with museums, archives and other information providers to increase public access to information.

Interpreting that mission

A broad view of library metadata
![Page 14: The Next Evolution of Library Cataloging: Finding Our Place in the 21st Century Information Ecology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55630ba5d8b42a5b498b45a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So how do we pay for all of this?

No more copy cataloging

Give up control of some of the details
![Page 17: The Next Evolution of Library Cataloging: Finding Our Place in the 21st Century Information Ecology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55630ba5d8b42a5b498b45a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Use technology more effectively
![Page 18: The Next Evolution of Library Cataloging: Finding Our Place in the 21st Century Information Ecology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55630ba5d8b42a5b498b45a0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
This is going to take a while
![Page 19: The Next Evolution of Library Cataloging: Finding Our Place in the 21st Century Information Ecology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55630ba5d8b42a5b498b45a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
