The Future Librarians Gang Discuss "The Reader Offer"

The Future Librarians gang consider what is meant by reader development ("The Reader Offer") in the modern library service. We talk about what reader development means, the scope of the service, and what differentiates the reader offer provided by libraries from other non-library sources. The gang discuss what comprises the ideal virtual reader environment and what libraries should consider within the physical space, before debating how we move forward with the ideas discussed. Throughout, participants give informative examples about initiatives they have been involved with or encountered during their careers.
