Thing #15 – Library 2.0

I think this is one of the best “Things” yet. There are so many powerful thinkers writing about what Library 2.0 means and what Librarians with these social networking tools can do. I would love to see Libraries with the technology and Librarians with the attitude and willingness to help students create videos like the one about the "A Vision of Students Today". What I do not understand is how to get teachers and Librarians working together to inspire students to want to learn. It seems that wonderful teachers inspire students and wonderful Librarians inspire students, but wonderful teachers who don’t know if their Librarian is wonderful will not give the Librarian the opportunity to contribute. Seems like we all lose.
