The fast and easy answer? - All media will be social, layered (virtual + physical), and just-in-time (real-time, place-, person-, and situation-specific).

Jason M. Schultz, director of the Samuelson Law, Technology and Public Policy Clinic at the University of California at Berkeley Law School, said libraries always have served two roles in society: 1.They're places where people can get free information; 2.and they're community centers for civic debate.
As books become more available online, that community-center role will become increasingly important for libraries, he said.
"It depends on whether we prioritize it as a funding matter, but I think there always will be a space for that even if all the resources are digital," he said.
Some libraries are trying to gain an edge by focusing on the "deeply local" material -- the stuff that only they have, said Blowers, the librarian in Ohio.
"How do we help add that value to a format like the Internet, which is expansively global?" she said. "So we look at what do we have here that we could help people gain access to by digitizing it."
That material can be used to start community discussions, she said.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
