Crossing borders – innovations and interdisciplinarity in the library work today

Library is in a process of crossing borders of its place and role. Library comes out of building by participating in street festivals, by going into digital world by providing electronic services. Library becomes a meeting place with an art, music, films, architecture and science. Library changes and innovations require more cooperation with other culture/ information providing organizations. We will meet to explore what forms of cooperation can create innovative actions in library or added value to its services.
