Library 2.0

Remember life before the internet? When we had to use REAL reference books? Well if you don't then you are waaaay too young (you probably don't even know what a vinyl record is!) to fully understand how scary this Library 2.0 thing is. Although some of the technology is relevant, I personally believe that a library without printed reading matter is a very sad place to be. I don't know about you, but holding a book in your hand whilst reading it is far superior to reading it on the net (kind of like carob being a poor substitute for chocolate!) Having said that, I can see that technology can make our jobs easier - if we know which technology to embrace and which to discard. That's the rub.
