Library 2.0 Workshop at NEFLIN

I got to spend a wonderful morning this week with trainer, Anthony Shamoun, and 17 NEFLIN members as we participated in a workshop, “Putting Library 2.0 to Work in Your Library”.

Here are a few thoughts and a link to Anthony’s Powerpoint presentation:

  • The number of text messages sent and received every day exceeds the population of the planet
  • Google now indexes one Trillion web pages
  • College students say if it doesn’t exist online, it doesn’t exist
  • You get the picture…

Anthony did a great job of both explaining the 2.0 technologies and how to use them in your day-to-day work at the library. Spend some time looking at the presentation he gave and the many great examples of how libraries are using these new technologies in a meaningful way.

We still has one more of these workshops coming up on December 4th in Ocala. Register today!
