After attending Reality 2.0 on September 12th at Deakin University and listening to Stephen Abram of Stephen's Lighthouse fame (Blog) and Sue Owen speaking on sustainability 2.0 and the Deakin experience, I have been inspired to revisit the web 2.o experience of 2007 and build on it.
Anyone interested in Evidence based practice in evaluating libraries may be interested in the following blog at http://librariesusingevidence.blogspot.com
The web 2.0 philosophy seems to have taken root in our library psych and now one of our roles appears to be evaluating its applications. Google seems to dominate this domain and our library customers may get their introduction to web 2.0 through google applications, they need not be limited to google. It is a large task to keep abreast of available applications and their value, strengths and weaknesses, but possibly this is one of our tasks.
This seminar strengthened my view that we must constantly evolve to survive and also to enhance our customers learning experience. We must treat customers as individuals and make them feel part of the library community and a joint learning experience.
