    Abstract
    Considers whether the growing power of IT and networking can be harnessed by public librarians to make fundamental changes to the opportunities facing them, rather than merely delivering existing services more effectively or cheaply. Presents 4 paradigms as a means of raising questions about what can and should be done to make the public library the central agency in the information (or learning) society. They comprise: the public library as an agent for community computing; as the community university; as the local service in a global network; and as the personal virtual library
