Steve Coffman and Linda Arret have written a two part series that
attempts to "...step back and take a look at the big picture - to see
where we have been, where we might be going, and to what extent we have
accomplished the purposes we set for ourselves when we began this brave
new way of doing reference not so very long ago."
