Jumping into the 2.0 Pool
Web 2.0 allows people to collaborate and share information online through services that enable shared content like pictures, videos, bookmarks and knowledge. It involves expanding communities through engaging users, embracing new technologies, and encouraging participation. To keep up with changes, one can become a "knowledge player" by spending 15 minutes a day subscribing to blogs, tagging items, creating a learning blog, and exploring new tools and applications.
50 Awesome Things | NJLA 2012
Presented by Jaime Hammond, Allen McGinley, JP Porcaro, and Lisa Carlucci Thomas at the New Jersey Library Association Conference, Atlantic City, NJ. June 5, 2012.

Taming the communication beast: Using LibGuides for intra-library communication
Presented at the Library Technology Conference 2011, St. Paul, MN.
Program Description: Black box. The back room. Behind closed doors. Such is the life of a Technical Services department. The literal and figurative disconnect between TS and the rest of the library can cause confusion and misinformation among library staff which, in turn, decreases the quality of service the library provides to its patrons. How can we use technology to overcome this disconnect? Many librarians have been successful using LibGuides as a tool to disseminate information from librarians to students and researchers. At Miami University, the TS department decided to experiment by creating a LibGuide to exchange information between TS and other library staff. By incorporating the department s WordPress blog, Google forms and spreadsheets, and RSS feeds into the LibGuide, we have created a place for dynamic interchange of essential information among library staff. The TS department uses the LibGuide to distribute information about our departmental policies and
procedures, as well as e-resource issues and statistics. All library staff can access this information as well as interact with TS staff by using the LibGuide to submit OPAC error reports, e-resource access problems, and report requests. This presentation will explore the planning, building, and implementation of the LibGuide and its evolution since its launch. There will be discussion on the pros and cons of the approaches tried, and on the considerations a department must take into account before building an online presence for intra-library communications.

Library 2.0 Creating A Borderless Library
The document discusses the concept of Library 2.0 and how libraries can embrace new technologies and social media to become more open and user-centered. Some of the key ideas presented include adopting a "perpetual beta" approach of rapid development and testing new technologies, using online applications, engaging users on social media platforms they use, allowing user-generated content, and removing barriers to access information. The goal is for libraries to become more "borderless" by meeting users in the online spaces they already use.

Are You A 2.0 Library? (METRO)
Michael Sauers, a technology innovation librarian, presented ideas on how libraries can better serve users and embrace new technologies. He suggests that libraries should go where users are, such as using text messaging and social media, instead of expecting users to use outdated communication methods. He also advocates that libraries should break down barriers to access, join online conversations, and focus on interacting with people rather than just machines. The presentation provides examples of innovative libraries and concludes by encouraging libraries to build on new ideas to better communicate and interact with users.
