Abstract

WITH ‘STAR WARS’ established as the brightest phenomenon since the skateboard, and inter‐galactic adventures all the rage, perhaps it is not a bad time to speculate on the librarian's role in outer space. Not that I've seen the film yet, and don't expect to for a while, seeing as we're still waiting for ‘The jazz singer’ at our local cinema. Nevertheless, as someone who may live long enough to see the start of real space adventure, if not long enough to see ‘Star wars’, I can't help but wonder just how the librarian will fit in.
