It has already
helped me assist
borrowers with
questions about
the Internet and
the resources
the Library is
offering.

97.
I looked at the
whole process as a
dare - if the rest of
the staff could do
this, so could I as a
representative of
the over-60 crowd!

98.
The most eye-
opening part of
Learning 2.0 for
me has been the
variety of ways
that people can
engage with each
other socially
online.

# 23 Thing,
AT LAST! –
I didn’t think I
could do it, but I
worked hard and
here I am.

100.
Thank for increasing
my knowledge in
Technology. If it
hadn't been for you
and Learning 2.0-
my knowledge of
technology would
still been in a very
small box.

I feel like Cinderella
who just finished her
chores in time to go
to the Ball.
(But the chores were
a learning experience
and hold promise for
the future.)

102.
I want to thank all
those who made this
Learning experience
possible.
I hope I get to talk to
you personally to tell
you how exciting it
was to go through the
program.

103.
Overall I thought this
was a crazy good
program, really easy,
and really made me
think.

104.
It helps to have nice
little incentives of
course, but I think the
true reward (whether or
not we want to admit it) is
that we're improving our
minds
