Thing #15: Web 2.0, Library 2.0

As I read through the discussion of Library 1.0-4.0 my anxiety level rose as the descriptions of each level were presented, but by the end of 4.0 I was really excited. Through the use of technology we can continue to redefine what a library looks like while still keeping its basic roots intact. A "place" whether a real stucture or virtual exsistence, that offers patrons an abundance of knowledge, peace, enjoyment, encouragment, and support to find the information they need to meet their needs. I also found the idea of redefining my "just in case" collection. It is becoming more important to find a balance between my physical collection and my digital collection. I continue to readjust my budget to meet these needs.
