2.0

I enjoyed reading all the perspective on the library and web 2.0. They same message came through each of them - we need evolve our service and harness 2.0. If we don't, we will become irrelevant as our communities continue to embrace new technologies that make everyone players in the information game. Chip Nilges To more powerful ways to cooperate was particularly compelling. OCLC allowing "user added value" from outside of Libraryland would have been unimaginable a few years ago. They see a future and it includes everyone. The democratization of information has happened and they know it. Their adding of new content like e-journals and seeking outside partnerships for collaboration is a lead all libraries should follow.
