    I do...

    It kind of has a very "Kitchens of the Future" feel to it though...doesn't it? Lets make sure Library 2.0 doesn't go the way of the automated egg flipper.

  • The Dark Side of L2

    Every coin has two sides. I'm sure there's folks out there who'd love to tell my why Library 2.0 is a bad idea. This place is for you!

    On second thought, if you thought Library 2.0 was a bad idea, you might not be hanging out on a site like, say, tangler. Now there's a dilemma.

  • Marketing & Advocacy

    What library marketing, or non-library marketing blogs do you frequent? Do you ever struggle with trying to turn the content of for-profit marketing blogs into something applicable for non-profits like libraries?  Sometimes, I feel kind of evil for reading about marketing. I mean, marketers are "evil" right? Discuss.

    I just found this Squidoo Lens for L2 from the ALA's Library Futures Course.
