Description

For more than 25 years, Joan Frye Williams has been a successful librarian, consultant, vendor, planner, trainer, evaluator, and user of library services. Since 1996, she has been an independent consultant specializing in innovation, technology, and the service needs and preferences of non-library "civilians." Just to give you an idea of how long Joan has been interested in library issues: her first library job was as a junior page in 1964. Since then she has been continuously employed in the library field. Along the way she received an MLS from the University of California at Berkeley. Her many clients include libraries of all types and sizes, library consortia, state library agencies, professional library associations, library boards, library vendors, and architects. Joan is best known as an acute--and sometimes irreverent--observer of emerging library trends, issues, and practices. She is an internationally recognized library futurist and designer of innovative library services. "Point of view is worth 80 IQ points." -- Alan Kay
