Thing 5

Summarizing Things read or watched in Thing 5:

- A Librarians 2.0 Manifesto- This video basically outlined the mind set that we should have toward the changes that come along with Web 2.0. Think positively about them and try them even if your current system seems to work fine, try it the Web 2.0 way.

-Library Journal.com - on Library 2.0 - Service for the next Generation- Explains how library customers will benefit from Library 2.0. By excepting and implementing the use of web 2.0 we will be able to service our customers in the way they choose to be served. It says that Library 2.0 is any service that successfully reaches users, is evaluated frequently and uses it's customers input. It talks about the "long tail" which in summary is a higher percentage of people desire to see or read things that are not "hits".
THAT'S ABOUT ALL I GOT.
