This "Old Dog" is used to "old school" libraries where the librarians gave an orientation of how to use the library. We would then fumble through the catalog of cards and the shelves looking for our resources and praying we would be able to find what we needed. With Library 2.0 all of this seems a thing of the past. Now the information you are looking for is so easy to access with a computer.
The video was great food for thought. It is so exciting to see the direction libraries are taking. I liked the articles on library 2.0. We do need to work on updating our libraries. The problem with this is funding. There are schools that barely have enough money to pay the librarian, much less keeping up with technology.I believe that librarians are becoing more and more as facilitators to and of information.
I just pray that the wonderful librarian at my campus will continue facilitating our Pre-K students with access to computers as well as sitting down and reading them a great book!
