It certainly is an exciting era for Libraries.
The suggested readings outlined some interesting points in relation to Library 2.0 and Web 2.0. There is, and always has been, the need to respond to what the user wants and to educate the user to access resources, but this is even more so today, as their needs become more diversified and technologically advanced. It is even more important now for Libraries to remain abreast of the times and to be one-step ahead of the user? Learning2.0 has definitely been a prompt and an aid, for me, in better understanding the potential of the internet.
I can still remember the excitement when the internet was first introduced to Libraries and the large amount of information we suddenly had at our fingertips - it was awesome! For some though it was frightening so let's not forget the "technologically-challenged", and remember to cater for these users by continuing to provide face-to-face contact and assistance. This will ensure that everyone benefits from Web 2.0.
