Blanking

All previous content on this page was totally unrelated to the article about reference desks in libraries, so I've blanked it: this page isn't for questions about Swiss history or child custody disputes. Nyttend (talk) 02:24, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

History section needs edit

The second paragraph in History here is... odd. Obscure and written in pseudo-high register, with little meaning when pulled apart. What's an "insidious yet drastic paradigm-shift" and would that even mean anything if sourced? Temerarius (talk) 18:30, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No idea indeed. The same concept could be conveyed with at least two thirds less words. The "resources" section is also misguided, for instance "index cards" and "drawers with folders" were already outdated by the 1990s and should be replaced with more generic terms which can encompass current technologies too.
