The concept of library 2.0 is great. Increasing assecibility to the most up to date and relevant information and data are key to successful libraries. Things change so quickly today and libraries need to be able to keep abreast of these changes in terms of updating their resources. Access to the "library" without having to actual be in the physical space is what it is about.
I strongly agree with the comment made in one of the perspectives that the services provided have to be usable without training. Without this component all the changes won't improve things but rather hinder all but a select few people in using them. Adequate computers to access the new format and style will be required as well.
I will confess however that I still love reading print material in a way that is more satisfying than on line reading just as I find having print photos more satisfying than digital images. Ah well I'll try and keep up with the times.
