  19. Conclusion “In a world of pervasive digital information, immediacy, profusion, confusion and solitude, libraries are a haven of time; they anchor knowledge in time, in space; they are a place where life unfolds. Their chief strength lies in their capacity to accumulate and disseminate knowledge, to be open, relatively standard-free and generous.” [Translation] Alain Sainsot, “Réinventer la bibliothèque?”, Bulletin des Bibliothèques de France 4 (2013), http://bbf.enssib.fr/sommaire/2013/4.
