For example, over here at The Rock, the Library does a cool thing: weeks in advance for seminars they will send a list of recommended readings to give those interested the chance to get a decent background before the talk. For example (http://librarynews.rockefeller.edu/?p=910). This is simple but specialized librarian work (the readings are not just a listing of the speaker's last five papers, they sometimes are not even past papers from the speaker but include reviews of the subject). Granted this is only a minor time-saver and it can be superceded by say, a reasonably clever Google Scholar search. But i think it points to the direction of future roles of university librarians.
