Thing 2: Learning about Learning 2.0

I started by watching a video on The Shifted Librarian page http://theshiftedlibrarian.com/archives/2007/02/07/think_library_20_as_you_watch_this.html

Digital text goes beyond printed text by allowing us to link resources. XML separates format and content to enable greater flexibility in creating web pages. By tagging we cataloging the web
so that other users can more readily find the resources. Every user can contribute to organizing the web.


Then I read the blog post: http://www.blyberg.net/2006/01/09/11-reasons-why-library-20-exists-and-matters/ by John Blyberg Assistant Director for Innovation and User Experience at the Darien Library in Connecticut.

Of the "11 reasons why Library 2.0 exists and matters" the ones that I think we need to focus on:

L2 requires internal reorganization
L2 requires a fundamental change in a library’s mission
L2 requires technological agility
