Hinweis der Redaktion
Back to the 15 century…
Around the year 1440, Johannes Gutenberg developed the printing press. Before the press, books were hand copied and extremely expensive. The press spread throughout the world and around 200 million copies of books were printed in the 16th Century alone. The printing press was an information revolution. With the printing press, books were more affordable, and available to the masses.
Why is this important now? Name a new invention that we have because of the printing press…… eyeglasses
He brought the automobile from France and the assembly line from England and combined them in Detroit
It comes down to democratization of information and evolving demands of technological literacy. It may not be as important for librarians now to know how to use a microfiche machine as it was 30 years ago. Are students today ok with knowing how to use a word processor, or would it be beneficial for them to learn about video/audio production and evolving 3D printing technologies? What might their jobs look like 10 years from now?
