Hi everyone (anyone......).
This is the second blog I've created. I had to make one for a subject I completed some time ago, but alas....I can't remember much about how to go about it. However, I must have become a little less intimidated by this sort of online environment as I'm not feeling too nervous about it. Heck, we've all read/seen lots of rubbish on the net. Surely I can make some sort of intelligent comment/s!
I'm hoping this program will further my understanding of Web2.0 capabilities and how they can benefit libraries. I'm passionate about libraries, and the public library philosophy of 'lifelong learning' for everyone attracted me to this profession.
Loved the blog example of the life of a soldier being told in posts, 90 years on from the actual events. A family member of mine recently transcribed some similar letters, and had them printed and bound. I will have to show her that blog.
A 'News' blog would be a great addition for the public library I visit. Currently, library newsletters can be accessed on the library page, but a blog could give the library more of a 'face', as I feel it gets lost in the council website. Also, the ability for patrons to post comments would be great. Presently comments can only be given via email.
Cheers for now.
