Description:
This volume examines the social, cultural, & political implications of the shift from print-based libraries to digital libraries--how library as place and library as space may be both contradictory & complimentary.
Review Quotes:
"That information is the vital element in a 'new' politics and economy linking space, knowledge, and capital is the central theme and premise of this provocative and compelling [volume]....This is a vital collection to be read not only by teachers, libraries, and academics of all persuasions, but also, more broadly, by the general reading public."
