Library 2.0 - Iceberg #15

To me, Library 2.0 is a high tech adjunct to or perhaps a replacement for the use of focus groups, surveys, conferences, personal experience and politics to help identify and develop solutions to library services needs. I think it helps to reaffirm why library professionals got into the business to begin with and provides them with a means to respond to a rapidly changing environment. The “iceberg” article offers a perspective on three problem areas in current library services models that the author feels need to be addressed if libraries are to thrive in the “post print” world. Library 2.0 is a reaction to the “post print” environment and will help libraries change with changing times.
