  • The widespread concern for librarians’ future is among the triggers of this paper. The aim of the article is to offer a non-alarmist outline of the future for academic librarians, starting from the analysis of some library roles. Acquisition, cataloguing, lending, reference and information literacy librarians are placed under the lens, investigating what are the future implications of modern technologies. The paper will appear in two different issues. The first part deals with acquisition, cataloguing and lending librarians, while the second one will deal with reference and information literacy librarians. The pattern emerging from the paper shows that there is a positive future for librarians, provided they find further ways to cooperate (with other librarians, engineers, professors and students). Secondly, a more flexible vision of the librarians’ roles will be requested.
