Stephen Harper's -view on- Libraries
Canada Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced that the Govt of Canada and the city of Toronto will work together to fight the recession, create jobs and improve infrastructure by making improvements to the Toronto Reference Library.
" For decades the Toronto Reference Library has been an important resource for millions of visitors of all ages"
Digital technology is transforming how we access and use information. The vessels that have traditionally prreserved knowledge are changing. Yet, the importance of our libraries as physical places where people gather to learn hasn't diminished.
He also stated - much has changed, however, since I first came to this library as a student in 1977. To meet these challenges an ambitious revitalization effort is needed. Or as any librarian here might put it, renovations to the reference Library are long overdue. We must stay on course, complete the implementationof our plan and finish the job of building the foundations of Canada's future prosperity.
