#10 Web 2.0, Library 2.0

So much of what we are learning from 23 things we will be able to apply immediately to our library services. We need to rethink the way we do things and concentrate on using Web 2.0 to link people to each other and their information needs. It could be as simple as a library blog or wiki. Readers could blog reviews or be allowed a forum to discuss what their needs are. All we need is a moderator. We have the technology already and now we have the enthusiasm. No longer do the staff wonder what a blog is, or why Facebook and Youtube are so attractive to our patrons.
