The document discusses tenets of innovation for libraries in a hyper-connected world. It outlines that innovation is desirable to users, possible with technology, and viable in the marketplace. The tenets include that ideas can come from anywhere, building on creative assets, freedom to brainstorm with diverse ideas, sharing ideas transparently, pursuing passions, accepting that innovation is not perfect initially, embracing failure to learn and improve, aligning innovation with strategy, focusing on patrons over the status quo, and morphing ideas rather than dismissing them.
