Can computers really help visitors to find what they want?For some time, libraries have been automating their back-end, behind-the-desk functions for reasons of cost and convenience, just like any o
9、ther business. Now, the computers have moved out from behind librarians desks and onto the floor where the visitors are. This means that, suddenly, library-goers will have to know how to use those computers.This sounds reasonable enough until you take a close look. Unfortunately, the same technology
10、 that cuts costs and relieves librarians of work behind the scenes increases it for the public-and for the librarians at the front desk who have to help the public figure out how to use the technology. The unhappy result: People are simply not finding the information they seek.If you are just coming
11、 to the library to read a book for pleasure and you know what a card catalog is and you have some basic computer skills, then you are going to be OK.

As a result, the public library is now engaged in a massive attempt to teach computer literacy to the enth-e country. Some librarians compare it to the adult literacy programs the library

Some libraries actually give courses in word processing, a
17、ccounting program and so on. But even at libraries where the staff has resisted becoming computer trainers, they are still forced to devote significant resources to the problem.Such has been the case in San Francisco, where people with disabilities can sign up to use the voice-recognition program Dr

The librarians have neither the time nor the peculiar skill (nor the time to develop the skill) to teach it to them. At the reference desks, librarians try not to spend a lot of time teaching people the basics of how t
