The exert above I think says it all … libraries are more then just the materials we lend and at DOK, Holland's Library Concept Center, they’re exploring the power of stories, creation, gaming and more. Here’s the cover story from Marketing Library Services newsletter, Discover Innovation at DOK, Holland's Library Concept Center.

And if want to see more images of this exciting library, check out Jenny Levine's flickr set from her recent visit.

PS: So glad I d the chance to met these guys during their first Shanachie Tour and am looking forward to hearing more about DOK at their keynote at CIL.

PPS: Thanks John S.
