We know that the library must deliver a suite of complex services necessary to maintain the collection in well-established formats. An assumption of formats do not do justice to the challenges libraries face.  The delivery of digital objects is by no means sufficient for successful learning.  We must develop better learning spaces too.<\/p>\n<p>The research shows that we do better when the academy provides shared learning space. The NY Times article:<br \/>\n &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/nyti.ms\/c6F3Gl\">Learning in Dorm, Because Class Is on the Web<\/a>&#8221; &#8211; outlines the new ways education is delivered and new technology that is having an impact on the need for good learning spaces.
