I enjoy history and this podcast sounds very interesting!

Week 9, # 20 You Tube

I enjoy the individual work of these musicians, but it is a treat when two distinct talents work together.

I also enjoyed the Seneca Library song. It shows how a library team can work together creatively in promoting the library.

Week 8 #19

On Zoho, I created a document using sheet and entered info into the planner. I found that it's very similar to Excel, but without as many features. I have also tried open office, in the past. I will probably stick to using Excel on a regular basis, but am glad I am aware of Zoho and its versatility.

Week 8 # 18 Social Networking

I took a quick look at each of the networking sites. I enjoyed looking at Dogster, Catster and Rate my Space. I prefer to use Facebook over the other social sites.

Week 7 #17 Technology

I feel fortunate to be a librarian during this time of rapid technological change. I can vividly remember working before the advent of personal computers, cell phones, etc...

After learning so many exciting tools, I am excited to share with our patrons.

Week 7 #16 Wiki

I like the collaborative nature of sharing information. Libraries can utilize this type of brainstorming to better serve our patrons: reader's advisory, programming, instruction,...
I would balance the information I gained from wiki's with other resources.

Week 6 # 15

Library 2.0
I enjoyed the article to a temporary place in time...by Dr. Wendy Schultz. She raised valid points about the evolution of the library. It's great to be thought of as a librarian "superstar" collected by patrons. I especially like the participatory aspect of the library. Library 4.0 is where I want to be!
