SeccLibraries, They are a Changin':Delivering Library Services in a Web 2.0 W...Susan Knisely
The document discusses the evolution of the web from static one-way information to more dynamic user-generated content and two-way interactions through social media and Web 2.0 technologies. It provides examples of popular social media tools like blogs, Facebook, YouTube, and wikis that allow for sharing content. The document encourages libraries to experiment with these new technologies to better engage with users and share information through tools people are already using like Facebook, blogs, and Twitter.
This document discusses the concepts of Web 2.0 and Library 2.0. It defines Web 2.0 as allowing users to actively contribute and create content, rather than just passively receiving information. Library 2.0 incorporates Web 2.0 tools and concepts to provide user-centered services with multimedia experiences that are socially rich and communally innovative. The document outlines five cornerstones for libraries to be Library 2.0: delivering new services, improving existing services, promoting themselves, being at the core of the community, and opening up to users. It questions whether libraries need to fully adopt a Library 2.0 model or if there is user demand for such services.
Connect With Your Users: Communicate Using Social Software ToolsRobFav
NELA presentation delivered at the 113th Vermont Library Conference, May 15, 2007. The presentation explores how libraries are using Blogs, Wikis, and RSS.
Web 2.0 tools allow for user-generated content and multi-sensory communication on the evolving, collaborative web. This has implications for libraries to become more socially rich and user-centric online communities. The document discusses several Web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, microblogging and social bookmarking that libraries can use to engage users and create a Library 2.0 environment that is user-centered, multimedia, socially rich, and communally innovative. Concerns about the time and effort required by libraries are noted.
Web 2.0 tools have changed the way that we interact with people and information online. Find out what Library 2.0 is and how the CSU Library is embracing new technology.
Blogs allow individuals to participate in public knowledge building by sharing day-to-day observations and personal experiences online. A typical blog includes permalinks to individual posts, comments from readers, and trackbacks to cite other blogs. Blogs became popular after 2001 as a way to share information in light of events like 9/11. People interact with blogs by reading, commenting, and linking to posts with similar interests across the "blogosphere."

“Librarian 2.0 - New Breed or Just Another Day at the Office?”bridgingworlds2008
The document discusses the concept of "Library 2.0" and the changing role of librarians. It suggests that librarians in the future (called "Library 8.0" from 2005 onwards) will need to adopt a more participatory approach by facilitating user contributions and conversations online and in physical community spaces. Key aspects will include hosting user-generated content, integrating external tools, and collaborating with patrons to build and improve library services and collections. The goal will be engaging communities and transforming libraries into more two-way, conversation-driven institutions.
The document discusses how Web 2.0 concepts like user participation, remixing, and sharing are influencing library collections. It provides examples of how users are creating their own collections on sites like Flickr, LibraryThing, and Delicious. The implications for libraries are to build new access points for users to discover library collections and to allow users to remix, share, and attribute pieces of library content. The future of libraries lies in both traditional and digital collections that facilitate both mediated access and direct user contribution.
This document discusses Web 2.0 and Library 2.0 concepts. It begins with an overview of how Web 2.0 enabled more interactivity, user participation and sharing compared to Web 1.0. Examples of Library 2.0 initiatives include incorporating more user-centered services, allowing user contributions, and delivering services directly to users outside of physical libraries. The document provides many examples of libraries experimenting with new technologies and allowing staff to "play" with emerging tools to better engage users.

Library staff formed a volunteer team to experiment with tools like blogs, wikis, Flickr, and RSS feeds. The team provided instructional classes on using these tools, emphasizing how content can be made public or private. A survey found most patrons had used at least one tool, with Flickr being most popular. The library integrated Web 2.0 throughout its operations and saw increased collaboration across departments.
New York Library Association: Web 2.0 at the Metropolitan Museum of ArtJennie Pu
The Metropolitan Museum of Art library staff adopted several Web 2.0 tools to make their resources more accessible and help patrons with research. A volunteer team experimented with tools like wikis, blogs, Flickr, and RSS feeds. They provided instruction to museum staff on using these tools and saw high interest. A survey later found that most staff had used at least one tool, with Flickr being the most popular. Web 2.0 helped the library share information and resources in new ways.
The document discusses the concepts of Library 2.0 and user-generated content. It provides two examples of how libraries have partnered with user-generated content projects: [1] The German National Library partnered with the German Wikipedia to link authority files of persons to Wikipedia articles, allowing over 22,000 articles to be linked. [2] The Wikisource project allows users to transcribe public domain texts, benefiting libraries who cannot afford large digitization projects. The document argues that in the future, librarians and users will become partners, with libraries providing platforms and organization, and users generating valuable new content and metadata.
This document discusses social librarianship and social libraries. It defines social librarianship as professional and non-professional librarians interacting online to catalog books and media. Social libraries allow users to build online catalogs and connect with others. Reasons for their popularity include collecting books for insurance purposes and finding recommendations.

Considering the Digital Branch: Extending Your Library's Reach into the Community presented by Catherine McMullen, Butte-Silver Bow Public Library at Montana Library Association Offline Technology Conference February 2010. A big thank you to David Lee King at Topeka and Shawnee County Public Library for developing and teaching the concept of the Digital Branch.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Hi. My name is Lisa Bunker and I am a Children’s Librarian for the Tucson-Pima Public Library System. Take a look at technology news websites such as Slashdot and Digg on any given day and you will see several references to something most people are calling “Web 2.0.” What is it? Definition: “a second generation of the web that is focused on the ability for people to collaborate and share information online.” (webopedia.com) Blogs, wikis, and community-based web services such as Flickr and LibraryThing are all seen as components of Web 2.0. Not a new technology, it’s a new attitude. If some of these terms are unfamiliar, we have provided a glossary in the handouts you were given.
