My Adventure with 23 Things

Friday, July 20, 2007

Well I'm finished with all of the Week 6 things. I think Library 2.0 has been a great opportunity for people to learn about new software and new technology. I didn't know most of these things existed. It was fun learning about them, and they are very useful- and when people ask "May I please see your Library Thing" - I can say yes,but I still think I'd rather lay on the couch and read a book.

We have heard before that the internet makes libraries obsolete, but we know thats not the case. Libraries have been the great equalizer when it comes to technology - We have given people access to computers and technology who might not have access any other way. In this rapidly changing environment, we are more important than ever. I know that everyone who works here can tell the story of someone who came into the library and said" I never knew you had this here!" And as long as thats the case, we'll be around long after "Google" has ridden off into the sunset.
