Our goal is to enhance the effectiveness of existing libraries as sources of information through the integration of new technologies. The Electronic Library of the Future accomplishes this through a system of transportable Design Components. These items can be moved among neighborhoods and communities to provide improved access to the latest technologies.

The components are dispersed throughout a library to create information "smart points." Their portability allows them to adapt to each facility and enables an endless number of Scenarios where different tasks can be performed. The role of the library can be expanded by including events that are based around the access of information.

Furthermore, this proposal is a showcase of New Technologies. As new developments are made, the components will evolve to incorporate them. The sharing of updated technology will benefit every community by providing equal access to information to the poorest and richest neighborhoods.
