This book takes an extended look at one of these factors: our status as GenX and GenY professionals and how it currently impacts both us and the field. It describes ways we can both learn from and move beyond generational differences, so that we can work together with our colleagues at all stages and levels to transform our profession and meet the needs of 21st-century library users. This book also recognizes that NextGens are the ones responsible for moving the profession forward over the next 20 to 30 years, giving them the responsibility to learn from and work with older colleagues now, while also discovering and planning where to go in the future. Tips are given for younger librarians entering this profession, who are dealing with colleagues who sometimes willfully deny that we are in an era of transition or that NextGens have much to contribute.
