Greetings from Salzburg and the Salzburg Global Seminar. I am honored to be here this week to participate as well as share the work of the group coming together to explore what participatory culture means for libraries and museums. My focus for a panel presentation to launch a discussion about the topics is Communication & Technology. Here are some of the questions we will explore: How are new technology innovations changing the ways people communicate?
