THING #15

The perspective that struck me as the most insightful was "Into a new world of librarianship". Key ideas such as the library is human and the five qualities of the librarian 2.0 are very important to the future of libraries and librarians. It made me think about how we plan and what we, as librarians, should be doing to effectively use the new 2.0 technology. Some of these qualities have always been seen as important to the profession. Implementing these in terms of 2.0 have a slightly different slant as to how we approach our relationship to the user. Definitely food for thought.
