I agree, why would senior management have a monopoly on resistance to change. Anyone really struggling to keep up with day to day tasks is likely to resist change to some extent regardless of their attitude and willingness to adopt new things. Having a realistic approach to change management could make all the difference. Kathryn's post at Librarians Matter <a href="http://librariansmatter.com/blog/2007/07/05/why-should-i-learn-about-that-when-im-busy-with-other-stuff/" rel="nofollow">identifies</a> some of the reasons why staff might be reluctant. She also posts some <a href="http://librariansmatter.com/blog/2007/07/06/20-reasons-learning-emerging-techologies-is-part-of-every-librarians-job/" rel="nofollow">reasons why it is important to be bothered</a> enough to do something about it.
