Thing 15

To me, Library 2.0 means that if librarians want to continue to be relevant, we need to be on the cutting edge of technology and what it can do for the library and its patrons. It is not our job to acquire every new technology that comes along, but to decide what new technologies are helpful to our patrons. The way that students learn and function in their learning is different, and we need to be progressive in this area. Not only does this keep librarians relevant, but libraries as well. Not only to we have to be a filter of this new technology, we have to stay up to date and proficient with these technologies as part of our jobs. In "Into a new world of librarianship," some of these points were made, and I firmly believe this is accurate.
