Among younger Americans who did read at least one book, the median or typical number read in the past year was 10, but they seems to value libraries less than older adults.

This is a MUST read about why museum professional need to think bigger -- much, much bigger -- about the future. "The dark matter of the Internet is open, social, peer-to-peer and read/write--and it's the future of museums." Michael Edson hits the nail on the head.

A job for the future: London's School of Life offers the help of "bibliotherapists" who can help you decide what kinds of books you should be reading. Maybe a "museuotherapist" can help visitors decide what parts of the museum they should spent their time on.

More good stuff from Geerat j. Vermeij, Distiguished Professor at UC Davis, also a blind geologist. Listening to a Tidepool is a great take on perception and worth the read if you're thinking to incorporate sensory experiences for the seeing and non-seeing visitor.

I think it is particularly true in this era of social media that we tend to hear only from/about people who are like us. Deep discussion of issues cannot thrive in this sort of an environment. There are many talented, insightful folks writing on their own blogs about important topics, but I don't have time to seek them out, read them, and understand what they're saying in order to form an opinion. So? I rely on my social media contacts. Oops.

I felt obligated to put this here. Very insightful read. In the absence of meaningful gun reform, it isn't hard to imagine public spaces becoming more rigid, enclosed, and surveilled. That's a problem.

A tongue-in-cheek presentation of the traditional print-on-paper book as the most convenient device for reading. Maybe we shouldn't be so quick to embrace all things digital. What does the future hold for museums and printed publications?

"with instant consumption, ambient assistance, and contextual awareness, the delay between desire and result is shrinking. Instant feedback and constant affirmation of status will be the norm. Patience may be a virtue, but it will be measured in seconds, not days." Look forward to spending time reading the full report. What is the impact on museums? Can we keep up with expectations of gamified information streams?

If you haven't seen Nina's blog this week, it's a "must read!" It's an important reminder that there are many different types of museum visitors out there, and while we should all provide access for a diversity of audiences, we don't want to forget those elitist jerks (especially since you and I may fall into that category more often than we'd like to admit).
