There is an exhibition at Tate Liverpool advertised in the Tate Members magazine (six times a year) which refers to traditional public libraries with, unless I misread it, a sense that there ought or will be something different, and presumably Tate and or this exhibition will have a role to play, perhaps in the destruction of traditional public libraries.
I wonder whether anyone at Tate kinows anything much about public libraries at all, about the story of technology, the history of the Internet in Britain, the People's network, or, as this is a JISC list, the JISC, or anything else to do with #infopolecon? (Insert your hashtag here).
Tate has a Facebook page, and with more than a million members, Tate might be a good place to provide some promotion for libraries as we think they ought to be.... lawtto2b might be a bit misleading.
I'm doing a pop app at Senate House on Saturday 15th Nov at 13.00 in a sequence called too much information, to make the word even more confusing perhaps. TMISH #TMISH might work for a short while.
