The document discusses the concepts of Web 2.0 and how they can be applied in libraries, leading to the idea of "Library 2.0". It describes key aspects of Web 2.0 like being user-centered, collaborative, and harnessing collective intelligence. It provides examples of Web 2.0 technologies like wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, and social networking and how they have been adopted by some libraries. The document argues that Web 2.0 offers opportunities for libraries to become more interactive, user-driven, and social if they embrace these new technologies and ideas.

14. So …
• Does Web 2.0 + Library = Library 2.0?

15. Our Environment: Library 2.0
Source: The Wikipedia

17. Fairly Obvious Web 2.0
Opportunities in the Library
• Interaction between librarians and users
• Personalized OPAC/ILS interface, with suggested
readings (automatic), sharing, bookmarks, user
ratings, user recommendations, discussions, etc.
• Taggable databases, content, (including OPACs)
• Mashups of multiple databases and media
• Interactive, media-rich tutorials
• Bibliographic instruction broadened to information
tools instruction

18. Fairly Obvious Web 2.0
Opportunities in the Library
• E-content
• Library blogs, RSS feeds, wikis
• Librarian/user wikis
• Organization of Web 2.0 manifestations
(wikis, blogs, mashups, etc.)
• Re-birth of ―bibliographies‖ – dynamic, user-
centered, user-generated, user-edited.

19. Fairly Obvious Web 2.0
Opportunities in the Library
• Extension of the library’s role of a meeting
place – Content-rich virtual spaces
• More interactive library websites

20. What It Means for Librarians
• Web 2.0 is only a threat if we (librarians and
other information workers) ignore and don’t
become a part of it.
• Are we to be seen as up-to-date, savvy, and
innovative?

21. Librarian 2.0
• Web 2.0 brings up issues we should be addressing
anyway:
• How ―user-centered‖ are we, how user-centered do
we want to be, how user-centered should we be.
• How collaborative do we want to be, can we be,
should we be?
• The librarian as ―facilitator‖
• Web 2.0 (Library 2.0) provides a reason to re-
examine library services!

22. The Interesting Intersection of
Librarianship and Web 2.0
• User-centered - We like to think so
• Collaborative - Vital
• Social - Most of us
• Interactive - basically
• Content-rich - Vital
• Facing Decentralization of Authority/Control –
Yes

43. Social Cataloguing
• Catalogue your ―library‖ of books, videos,
music
• Share your catalogue
• Community of like interests

44. Examples of Social Cataloguing
• Flickr
• Flixster
• finetune
• Library Thing

45. Flickr is a social network for sharing photos
Flickr shows me
photos from my
network
My contacts “tags”
are available to me

47. Social
Bookmarking

48. Social Bookmarking
• Folksonomy
• Participation
• Collaboration and tagging
• Organization, describing, and storing of
webpages
• Searches tagged websites

49. Social bookmarking
• Social bookmarking uses the same principals and structure as social
cataloguing.
• Social bookmarking is also a folksonomy
• requires participation
• collaboration and tagging
• unlike social cataloguing, the user does not catalogue collections.
• Social bookmarking is the organization, describing, and storing of
webpages.
• Unlike simply bookmarking your favourite sites on your web browser,
social bookmarking searches tags that people have used to describe a
webpage.
• Once the user has searched and found websites of interest, they can
bookmark them on a hosted site and share their favourite sites with
others.
• Users can also tag the websites to add to the collaborative nature of
the application.

50. Examples Social Bookmarking
• de.licio.us
• Stumble Upon

51. Del.icio.us is an Example of a Site that Uses a
“Folksonomy” to Organize Bookmarks
Tags: Descriptive
words applied by users
to links. Tags are
searchable
My Tags: Words I’ve
used to describe links
in a way that makes
sense to me
A “folksonomy” is a spontaneous,
collaborative work to categorize links by
a community of users. Users take control
of organize the content together.

53. Activities
• Create an account in LibraryThing
• Create a profile
• Create a catalogue of a few books you
own
• Tag the books with descriptive words
