MLA Plenary Session IV - David Rothman
1. “ Web 2.0” http://www.oreilly.com/pub/a/oreilly/tim/news/2005/09/30/what-is-web-20.html Tim Dale Dougherty, web pioneer and O'Reilly VP, noted that far from having "crashed", the web was more important than ever, with exciting new applications and sites popping up with surprising regularity. What's more , the companies that had survived the collapse seemed to have some things in common . Could it be that the dot-com collapse marked some kind of turning point for the web, such that a call to action such as "Web 2.0" might make sense? We agreed that it did, and so the Web 2.0 Conference was born. [David’s emphasis]
2. Why Web “ 2.0 ”? 10 th Edition = Version 10.0 12 th Edition = Version 12.0 11 th Edition = Version 11.0
3. The “2.0” is a metaphor Upgrade? Program? Movement? Version of the Web?
4. The “2.0” is a metaphor Upgrade? Program? Movement? Version of the Web? Just jargon for a set of trends
5. Don’t take MY word for it: “… I think Web 2.0 is of course a piece of jargon… … the idea of the Web as interaction between people is really what the Web is. That was what it was designed to be as a collaborative space where people can interact.”

22. So what’s “Library 2.0”? Library 2.0: Service for the next-generation library Michael E. Casey and Laura C. Savastinuk Library Journal, 9/1/2006 http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA6365200.html “ The heart of Library 2.0 is user-centered change. It is a model for library service that encourages constant and purposeful change , inviting user participation in the creation of both the physical and the virtual services they want, supported by consistently evaluating services . It also attempts to reach new users and better serve current ones through improved customer-driven offerings .” “ What makes a service Library 2.0? Any service, physical or virtual, that successfully reaches users, is evaluated frequently, and makes use of customer input is a Library 2.0 service. Even older, traditional services can be Library 2.0 if criteria are met. Similarly, being new is not enough to make a service Library 2.0.”

24. So what’s “Library 2.0”? “ Library 2.0 describes a subset of library services designed to meet user needs caused by the direct and peripheral effects of Web 2.0 services leveraging concepts of the Read/Write Web, the Web as Platform, The Long Tail, harnessing collective intelligence, network effects, core datasets from user contributions, and lightweight programming models.” Toward Academic Library 2.0: Development and Application of a Library 2.0 Methodology Michael Habib (Master’s Thesis) http://hdl.handle.net/1901/356
