Web 2.0, Library 2.0, Library User 2.0, Librarian 2.0:Innovative Services for Sustainable Libraries

摘要

It seems difficult to now imagine a world without the internet. Since its widespreadpublic adoption in the 1990s, the internet has inextricably woven itself into every facetof human existence, influencing and in some ways reshaping every aspect of modernlifeour communication patterns, the way we seek information, the way we think, and, insome instances, the way we act. It is highly unlikely that one would find a person working ina library, or in any other organization for that matter, whose professional and personal life hadnot been affected by the internet. In fact, my professional life as associate cataloging librarianat Nova Southeastern University's (NSU) Alvin Sherman Library revolves around it.
