Marydee Ojala’s editorial in the July/August 2004 issue of Online discusses Clayton Christensen’s book The Innovator’s Dilemma. She wrote
I find the notion of librarians and informational professionals being disruptive technologies extremely appealing. What a wonderful role to assume! …I suggest we enjoy this pivotal role, relish our power, rethink our priorities, and assert our distinctiveness.
So, my fellow library school peers, we are becoming a disruptive technology.

Sounds interesting. “Disruptive technology” - I like the sound of that. I find it somewhat ironic that a magazine called Online doesn’t have its latest issue available on its website…I just tried to access it via EbscoHost, but the latest issue there is Mar/Apr. Oh well. I guess I can wait. Thanks for pointing this out.
