Much is being written and said about disruption in the legal industry. The same is true of the supposed “end” of law librarianship. Believe it or not, today’s disruption is our best chance to ensure that law librarians remain vital for years to come. Are you ready to embrace the change – to leverage it?
What do you need to succeed? Adoption, implementation and expertise, according to John. He advocated that it is the Librarian’s responsibility to bring new technology to the firm, after all it is the Librarian who knows best what the attorneys need; they won’t do it themselves. Once the new technology has been introduced to the firm, the Librarians are the implementation experts. As we know, it is the Librarian who knows who needs what, and when and how they need it. Remembering this throughout your strategy will reap the greatest of rewards, with the greatest opportunity for “disruptunity”.
