Jane Hart's compilation of top tools used by educational technologists has been widely noticed, but in an unusual way. Steve Bell at ACRLog noted that libraries and library resources weren't among the tools listed and suggested that this must be because the were inadequately publicized. I commented that "it might be because they are not actually very valuable e-learning resources as presently constituted." This discussion then made the Chronicle of Higher Education (and I'd like to welcome the new readers from the Chronicle, sent here via one of the magazine's rare forays into the edublogosphere). So it seems like a good day to link to this item, which was sent to me last week: a writer at DegreeTutor, an e-learning company, surveys librarians and asks about the future of that institution.
