@yosh Couldn’t agree more. Having worked for years with academic librarians, their expertise is not in filing books, but in the really deep problems of information access, management, discoverability, and sharing.

These are core knowledge sharing topics in any organisation (and between organisations, within a shared community), and librarians have literally thousands of years of professional expertise in solving them.

Tech could learn a lot from them.
