INNOVATION CONVERSATIONS
“The future is already here. It's just not very evenly distributed”
-William Gibson
This quote was recently brought up at ULC’s Fast Forward event and reminds us that our future could be someone else’s present.
In the SCENARIO PLANNING process, it is important to be aware of the rich and diverse innovation going on all around us. People all over the world (and not just in libraries) are constantly coming up with new methods of service and pushing the creative envelope into the future. But not all innovation is successful. This element strives to open up the conversation to not only what has truly worked, but what has been a miserable failure and why.
