“A library as platform would give rise to messy, rich networks of people and ideas, continuously sparked and maintained by the library’s resources. A library as platform is more how than where, more hyperlinks than container, more hubbub than hub.”

- David Weinberger, 2012: Library as Platform, in: LibraryJournal. http://lj.libraryjournal.com/2012/09/future-of-libraries/by-david-weinberger/
