What is Decline of Library Reference Services about?
This paper examines the decline of reference services in public libraries due to the rise of the Internet and search engines, which have largely replaced the role of reference librarians. It discusses the historical context of reference services, their current underutilization, and potential strategies for adaptation, such as virtual reference and information literacy courses. Despite these options, the author predicts that the obsolescence of reference services in public libraries is likely inevitable.
