商品簡介
Librarian and theologian Maxwell (Miami Dade College North Campus Library) reflects on the spiritual dimensions of libraries and librarianship in a secular world. She contends that, despite predictions of their eventual obsolescence, libraries will continue to thrive in the future because they provide something to their users that goes beyond the mere transmission of information. These include such important, but less-tangible services as the promotion of community, the preservation of culture, and the provision of sacred space.
