It is critical to our future to have the ability to identify the trends that will impact our libraries and our users. We need to plan to adequately put into place the resources, services and staff capacity that will allow us to remain agile and proactive in serving our user communities. A trendspotter is someone who is capable, by virtue of keeping up with information from a variety of sources (mostly outside of librarianship), of identifying current and coming trends, and communicating and sharing that information with colleagues. It doesn’t have to be only the library director. All staff can and should play a role in spotting the trends.
