  • he heart of Library 2.0 is user-centered change
  • nviting user participatio
  • It also attempts to reach new users and better serve current ones through improved customer-driven offerin
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Technological advances in the past several years have enabled libraries to create new services that before were not possible, such as virtual reference, personalized OPAC interfaces, or downloadable media that library customers can use in the comfort of their own homes. This increase in available technologies gives libraries the ability to offer improved, customer-driven service opportunities.
  • Libraries are in the habit of providing the same services and the same programs to the same groups
  • , Stephens believes that “Library 2.0 will be a meeting place, online or in the physical world, where [library users'] needs will be fulfilled through entertainment, information, and the ability to create [their] own stuff to contribute to the ocean of content out there.”
  • . It's never been easy to reach this group with physical services, because libraries are constrained by space and money and cannot carry every item that every user desires
  • Chris Anderson, editor-in-chief of Wired, who coined the phrase in an article of the same name in 2004, argues that the demand for movies or books that are not hits far outnumbers the demand for those that are hit
  • Going after the diverse long tail requires a combination of physical and virtual services

  • New Zealand content difficult to discover, share and use
  • DigitalNZ is testing ways to create digital content, collect and share existing digital content, and build smart, freely available search and discovery tools.
  • Memory Maker blurs the line between consuming and producing content. What’s sometimes called ‘remix culture’ […]. Digital technologies have opened up new possibilities for young people to access and represent the stories of their culture by taking sound and images and recombining them to say something new, something relevant to them. (Sarah Jones, Lunch Box: Software & digital media for learning, November 2008) http://lunchbox.org.nz/2008/11/get-coming-home-on-your-schools-website-wiki-or-blog/)

  • The Memory Maker provides a taste of what is possible when collecting institutions modernise their practices for keeping and managing copyright information, using Creative Commons licenses or ‘no known copyright’ statements.
  • Learning about ‘hyperlinks’ today, these young New Zealanders will be the developers and creators of tomorrow.
  • The full set of contributions is accessible through a Coming Home search tool, occasionally on a google-like hosted search page (Figure 5), but more often through a search widget embedded on many New Zealand Web sites (Figure 6).
  • Digital New Zealand is developing and testing solutions that showcase what’s possible when we really focus on improving access to and discovery of New Zealand content.
  • Technically, the Digital New Zealand system is in three parts: a backend, a metadata store, and a front end.
  • The coolest thing to be done with your data will be thought of by someone else
  • “an API is basically a way to give developers permission to hack into your database”.

  • If you’ve used any of the popular Web 2.0 services over the past few years (e.g. Gmail, Wikipedia, Flickr or Twitter), you already have some experience with cloud computing
  • Like water and electricity, a computing cloud is a communally-shared resource that you lease on a metered basis, paying for as little or as much as you need, when you need it

  • As individuals and members of organizations, we’re already choosing between desktop applications and cloud applications when it comes to e-mail, RSS, file storage, word processing and other simple applications. Sooner or later we’ll have to make this choice for mission-critical enterprise applications too
  • Libraries may soon be building and managing their own data centers.
  • For more practical, technical explanations of cloud computing, check out the Wikipedia article the Anatomy of Cloud Computing the MIT Technology Review Briefing on Cloud Computing.
  • For a discussion of problems and concerns about the digital cloud, read: How Secure is Cloud Computing? Security in the Ether Industry Challenges: The Standards Question
