Library 2.0/Web 2.0

I had a read of three articles listed in the Discovery exercise. In many ways they said much the same thing but with different foci. They are quite correct that libraries and the staff in them cannot simply row the boat as one said, they have to adapt and grow with our user's needs. And technology is a means to an end - it means that we can connext with our users in such simple and easy ways with little inconvenience to anyone. Some staff will need to take a seizmic shift in their thinking while others are already there. I am remembering when a staff member and I created a Wiki earlier this year, panic seemed to spread through the management team, it was extraordinary.
