  • Culture Clash. Bertram, Sheila Olson, Hope Conflict Diversity (Institutional) Information Technology Library Education Library Schools Library Science Library Services School Role Teacher Role Discusses two basic cultures within the library science field, one that emphasizes "soft-edged" traditional service and the other newer culture which has evolved around information technology and entrepreneurial drive.
