Vikram did an excellent job (and so did you!). I think there's a place for free too - just not everything all the time. Ryan, I couldn’t agree more. Vikram did an excellent job (and so did you!).

The industry can still (and needs to) make great strides on the first three expectations while driving revenue. In many ways that's the hypothesis our company was built on.

I especially liked: "...the study calls for libraries to respond urgently to the changing needs of researchers and other users...Libraries have to accept that the future is now." That's really the core of my point. Google generation or not, this is here already. It's not something happening in the future. We need to be experimenting, learning, and developing now - not when "they" get here! Thanks Raf -
