Comments about Web 2.0 and Library 2.0

I like what Michael Stephens mentioned in his article, entitled "Into a New World of Librarianship" that Librarian 2.0 makes good, fast decisions. It would be helpful if JCPL would adopt that philosophy. I think patrons expect it as they expect us to plan our services with them in mind. I also liked what Dr. Wendy Schultz says in her article, "To a temporary Place in time": "Libraries are not merely in communities, they are communities." Again, I feel that patrons expect the library to REALLY be part of the community and would give the library more support if we proved that we are.
I missed the author, but the article entitled, "11 Reasons Why Library 2.0 Exists and Matters" has a great quote: ...the basic drive is to get people back into the lbirary 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." I can't remember how man times patrons have come to the library to ask for a book or video. Initially, they checked a video store or book store, then remembered the library. The library should be their first thought.
