What is the future of books?
Manage episode 394663279 series 3548868
Welcome to the Big Thinking Podcast, where we talk to leading researchers about their work on some of the most important and interesting questions of our time.
Gabriel Miller, President and CEO of the Federation, is our host.
Digital technologies are reshaping every aspect of our society, and books are no exception. But as physical objects, books have a powerful connection to us and our culture. As our world continues changing, it’s worth asking what books mean to us and to our future.
Miller is joined by Claire Battershill, Assistant Professor cross-appointed in the Faculty of Information and the Department of English at the University of Toronto.
Thank you to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) for making this podcast possible.
