Our library is just beginning to explore and use library 2.0 technology. I happened across a quote by Roy Tennant, a knowledgeable and respected digital librarian. He says, “It’s easy to be dazzled by all this new technology and way of doing things, but we can never lose sight that this will only work if we create collections and services that our community find compelling.” Our library will increase in use and prominence if we continue to keep doing what we do best --offer the best selection, quality, organization and access to information with an outstanding service attitude.
I think these fundamental values are good reminders, good signposts that will keep us balanced as we incorporate more and more of the web 2.0 features into our libraries, and as we shift our consciousness to bringing the library to the library user.
