Librarians these days are very tech savvy. They can walk patrons through the process of borrowing audiobooks, ebooks, digital magazines and newspapers. Not to mention the myriad of apps they need to know like the back of their hand.

Over a half of surveyed libraries (56%) spend less than 5 hours per week on social media.
