Library 2.0 is here... Actually, it's been here a while, but I'm just now catching up with the times!
What an opportunity this is for everyone--information staff and customers, too.
Library 2.0 is a natural progression of seeking and using information. It builds on all Library 1.0 was, but expands this beyond “read only” sites to interaction between users. And there’s no segregation of information providers and users: we’re all information contributors and have unique perspectives and knowledge to offer. The old “caste system” of there being owners and creators of content who are in some way “qualified” to contribute is long gone.
Library 2.0 is a mindset change and advance as well as a technological advance. To get the most out of it for ourselves and our customers, we have to go with the ever-changing flow of how people live their lives and the information they use to make their lives enriching and fulfilling.
