Called to Be Agents of Change to a Starving World addresses the concerns of attendees to the World Economic Forum who completed a survey in the year 2018. There were 28,000 participants, aged 18 to 35, who were asked to rank their views of the top ten problems that confronted the world at large. The participants noted that the world was starving for solutions or proactive answers to the top ten problems that they determined were confronting the world. This book assesses those problems and suggests practical responses within the call of Christ for each of us to be bread, wine, salt, and light to the world. The book begins with an overview of Christ and his principles, progresses to an application to two current worldly challenges, and concludes with applications to the ten problems determined by the survey responses. The goal of the book is to inspire thought and provide a catalyst for action using a proactive stance by all individuals.

In this anthology, top scholars researching libraries, archives, and museums (LAM) issues in Scandinavia explore pressing issues for contemporary LAMs. In recent decades, relations between libraries, archives, and museums have changed rapidly: collections have been digitized; books, documents, and objects have been mixed in new ways; and LAMs have picked up new tasks in response to external changes. Libraries now host makerspaces and literary workshops, archives fight climate change and support indigenous people, and museums are used as instruments for economic growth and urban planning. At first glance, the described changes may appear as a divergent development, where the LAMs are growing apart. However, this book demonstrates that the present transformation of LAMs is primarily a convergent development. Libraries, Archives, and Museums in Transition will be essential reading for students, scholars, and practitioners seeking to get on top of the LAM literature or the particularities of Scandinavian LAMs.
