  1. Library 2.0 Gillian Wood / Graham Spooner NSW Health & The College of Nursing

  2. What is L2.0? • Based on “next iteration” of the web • Interactive with clients • Social software • Permanent beta • User-driven • Often based around free-software • Don’t seek permission, seek forgiveness (but be careful)

  3. Examples • Amazon.com • Personalised Google • Ask Now! • Wikipedia

  4. But … • I don’t have time to do my job already • Isn’t it just a fad, like KM? • IT won’t support it • Firewall issues • Internet access issues • No need for one

  5. Why? • Improve user experience of the library • Low cost, low effort, high profile • More control and customisation for the user • Bringing library to meet clients’ expectation of the web

  6. Today • Not going to address all arguments • It is a tool • We can use it to our advantage • Explore examples that we’ve used or tried • Give you an idea of what you might be able to do

  7. Technologies • Blogs • RSS • Wikis • IM • Mashups / widgets • Flickr • Tagging • Podcasting • YouTube • Slideshare

  8. Real-time blogging? • Comment sheets circulating • Web 2.0 isallaboutthe social aspects of the web (eg MySpace, Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, etc) • Content can be created by all

  9. Aka “Rich Site Summary”

  10. But … • I don’t have time to do my job already • Is there something you can stop doing? • Isn’t it just a fad, like KM? • Possibly, but there are good elements to it • IT won’t support it • Go around them – ask for forgiveness later • Firewall issues • Internet access issues • Some things can’t be solved! Go around them.

  11. Where to from here? • Try the technology for yourself • Try one RSS feed, write a blog, or upload some photos • Ask for suggestions and help • Not every technology is for everyone • Some things will be impossible in some IT environments • Need to be useful for our clients (and us)

  12. Where to from here? • Don’t just jump on the bandwagon • Get a fit to your library and clients • Don’t be afraid to try something new • Have fun! • Discuss at http://hlis.wordpress.com/ • Discuss with colleagues – form a network? • Share ideas, ask questions

  13. Resources • Look at Library 2.0 in Wikipedia • Blogroll at http://www.bloglines.com/public/hlis2-0
