In my research, I’ve come across a number of libraries with centers similar to what I have in mind, though there isn’t as much consistency in approaches as one might expect. Still, it’s obvious that most libraries can read the writing on the wall: they do need to be part of the creation and production of information and not just facilities for the storage of it.
