The document discusses how libraries are adopting various Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis, social bookmarking, and open source software to become more user-centered and engage patrons. It provides examples of each technology and how libraries are using them to disseminate information, collaborate, and interact with users in new ways that align with users' needs and behaviors online.
Libraries: technology as artifact and technology in practicelisld
Research and learning workflows are increasingly enacted in data-rich network environments. New behaviors are emerging which are shaped by and in turn shape workflow and data tools and services. This means that library attention is shifting from not only providing support systems and services but to supporting those behaviors more directly as they emerge. This support may take the form of particular system or services, but will also involve consulting and advising about such things as publication venues, reputation management, profiles, research networking.

Digital Visitors and Residents: Project Feedbackjisc-elearning
Students and staff have been developing their own digital literacies for years and successfully integrating them into their social and professional activities. The Visitors and Residents project has been capturing these literacies by interviewing participants within four educational stages from secondary school to experienced scholars. Using the Visitors and Residents idea as a framework the project has been mapping what motivates individuals and groups to engage with the web for learning. We have been exploring the information-seeking and learning strategies that are evolving in both personal and professional contexts. In this presentation we will discuss these emerging ‘user owned’ literacies and how they might integrate with institutional approaches to developing digital literacies. We also will discuss the Visitors and Residents mapping process and how this could be utilised by projects as a tool for reflecting on existing and potential literacies and the development of services and systems.

Young and Wired: How today's young tech elite will influence the libraries of...Edwin Mijnsbergen
Libraries are the living, breathing internet that existed long before the digital network that we know today. They are the connected nodes of information and community exchange that we have relied on to communicate, collaborate, share resources and preserve knowledge in our societies for centuries.
But there are concerns about the future of physical libraries, given that so many of us have easy access to virtual libraries of information on our computers at home. Recent Pew Internet Project research examines technology use by teenagers and suggests how the behavior and expectations of young internet users might shape the libraries of the future.

The evolution of digital libraries as socio-technical systemsKaren S Calhoun
Introduces and orients participants to digital libraries as socio-technical systems--that is, systems based on the interplay of technology, information, and people. The objective is to expose thematic connections between digital library infrastructure, cultural heritage and scholarly collections, social forces, and online community building. Key challenges of the current environment include interoperability, community engagement, intellectual property rights, and sustainability. Invited presentation for the Nimitiz Library staff, US Naval Academy.
This presentation was given at Bobcatsss2013 in Ankara.
Once the library assembled a collection and people came to the library to use it. Now, people build communication, workflows and behaviors around a variety of network resources. The library needs to think about how it is visible and relevant in those workflows and behaviors.
The Library in the Life of the User: Two Collection Directionslisld
Our understanding of library collections is changing in a digital, network environment. This presentation focuses on two trends in this context. First, the inside-out library is a trend which sees libraries support the creation, management and discoverability of institutional materials: research data, expertise, preprints, and so on. Second, the facilitated collection is a trend which sees libraries increasingly organize resources around user interests, whether these resources are external, collaborative or locally acquired.
This presentation was given at 'The transformation of academic library collecting: a symposium inspired by Dan C. Hazen'. Harvard Library, 20/21 Oct. 2016
Presented at Industry Symposium, IFLA, 14 August 2008. Describes a new environment of global information services using metadata, taxonomies, and knowledge organization.

OLA 2014: A Future of Freedom and Innovation in Library Cataloguesjocelyneandrews
For too long the catalogue has been an extension of proprietary systems, offering us little opportunity to influence the functionality and usability of this mission-critical tool. While user expectations and our competition have changed radically, catalogues have not.
We will look at some current best-in-class catalogue examples, and consider the future of the catalogue, looking at how we can embrace next-generation trends like Linked Data and the Semantic Web. By advocating for systems that provide openness and flexibility, libraries will be empowered to face an uncertain technological future.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Acknowledgments (Arial, 40 points, bold) Thanks to, Roy Hampton/Terry Smith, www.xkcd.com , www.librarything.com , www.coastal-sc.syrup.com , www.pratt.edu , and Frankfort Public Library Mary (Molly) Cronin & Laura O’Leary Dewey – It’s not dead yet! Dewey is everywhere. It’s the most popular classification system from coast to coast, across the oceans. So, why fix what isn’t broken? Mixing it Up Take some risks. Move away from the traditional realms of classification. Throw off the shackles of the 200’s and 300’s. Buck the constraints of the Library of Congress subject headings, but don’t throw it all out entirely. Use a mix to make it work.. Take the ideas of the patrons and mix them with the expertise of the staff. Figure 2. Image from www.xkcd.com , a fantastical map of the internet/social networking universe Figure 1.

But it’s not that easy. Changing the mindset of patrons and staff is the biggest obstacle. Figure 5. Successful OpenShelf Classification at the Frankfort Public Library in Barrington, IL Key Image 5 You CAN have it all! An educated library staff, a motivated patron base and all the great new technologies will make a fully functioning OpenShelf Classification System a reality. Just don’t kill off Dewey. It’ll be hard to bring him back. References LibraryThing Adds Reviews to OPACs. (2008, November 15). Library Journal, Metadata Man. (Cover story). (2008, March 16). Library Journal .

6. Library 2.0: Embracing the Needs of the User Natalie Brant, Cathy Gollub, Philip Sutton, Julie Seigel, Stephanie Wilson Blogs are an increasingly popular web tool. With the increase in popularity, libraries are slowly adapting this technology to disseminate information to their audience in a more immediate and informal way. In addition, librarians are using this technology to share ideas with other library professionals. Wikis A Wiki is a resource that allows a registered user to upload, edit, link, share, and discuss information on the Web, with little or no HTML or programming skills. It is a useful site for collaboration and knowledge organization, that may be designed to function according to specific user or community requirements, operating as an archive, listserv, encyclopedia, directory, gazetteer or website. A Wiki enables a library to interact with its users. Figure 2. Tag Cloud for Web 2.0 Figure 1. I write blogs, brainstuck.com .

Social Tagging Social tagging is an informal, post hoc system of classification which accepts an infinite number of possible and acceptable terms, reflecting the diverse backgrounds, terminologies, and needs of its users. Tagging is now being used by cultural institutions to promote their collections. Social bookmarking enables a user to organize and store web pages on the Internet and identify them through a system of user generated tagging. Allows for easy retrieval of bookmarks and for sharing and browsing of other users’ bookmarks. Public libraries, as well as academic libraries are experimenting with its use. Blogs
