One of the best definitions of L2 I've encountered so far

In pointing to the ALA TechSource discussion with M. Casey, the LiB explains how she defines Library 2.0 and I applaud her straightforward, concise style. This is a good definition to keep handy for our discussions. Thanks LiB!

"Library 2.0 simply means making your library's space (virtual and physical) more interactive, collaborative, and driven by community needs. Examples of where to start include blogs, gaming nights for teens, and collaborative photo sites. The basic drive is to get people back into the library by making the library relevant to what they want and need in their daily lives...to make the library a destination and not an afterthought."

Thank you, Michael! I felt as if I was watching David Copperfield make the elephant disappear then reappear before my eyes. Thank you for your enlightening and entertaining program. We shall go fearless into the great beyond commonly known as "internet."
