  7. Competency development 23 Things – learning web 2.0 Online learning program that encourages staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web Over the course of twelve weeks, library staff in Ostfold were encouraged to partake in 23 discovery exercises to help them become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, and video and image hosting sites. Each staff member who completed the 23 activities received a USB stick and certificate and wet into the draw for a laptop. 89 libray staff joined the course. Teamwork with 2 other counties – 180 participants altogether.

  22. Issues addressed • “What conceptions of the library exist among users, politicians and librarians? • What picture of itself should a library aim to present to its owners and to the public? Do libraries simply need a new brand image? A strong wish to shake up the image of the library in the community!
