What is Library 2.0 and why is it important? Loosely defined Library 2.0 describes an approach to library service that is interactive, collaborative, and driven by user needs and expectations. Library 2.0 also calls for libraries to encourage user participation and feedback in the development and maintaining of library service. In this full-day workshop we'll explore the basics of Library 2.0. We will also explore a selection of Library 2.0 tools (Librarything, Flickr, Del.icio.us, Wiki and more) with plenty of hands-on time to practice. (source: CT State Library Workshops)
