Social Networking & Wrap Up

It would be great if library staff could have the time to develop social networking within the library for it's members. I feel this would draw in the teens as so many of them get into the "chat" rooms. The emphasis of having a library on myspace or facebook for teens interact and discuss reading and books.

The opportunity is there waiting for libraries to harness Web 2.0 technology and reach out to the multitude of potenial library uses.

I am now at the the end of State Library's Web 2.0 training course. I have really enjoyed learning and gaining these skills. Congratulation to all the staff at NSL, a job well done in giving us the opportunity to participate in this course. It would be great to see if State Library could investigate some other ways in which to incorporate other online training for reference and reader services to library staff throughout NSW.
