The emerging information pay-per-view regime could signal the death of the liberal Enlightenment project and thus the public library itself. Thinkers as politically diverse as Theodore Adorno, Gertrude Himmelfarb, Dinesh D’Souza, and Neil Postman have predicted the death of the Enlightenment, blaming a variety of causes, including the Enlightenment’s internal contradictions, the empty cleverness of postmodernism, and the social tremors caused by ethnic politics. The real culprit, however, is the steady commercialization of the cultural and communicative process.
