      Presentation by:
      Eddie Byrne
      Librarian & Web Administrator
      May 2007


           Dublin City Public Libraries & Archive, Dublin, Ireland
This is a two-part Presentation
                       ---



                      Part Two: Library 2.0
Part One: Web 2.0 |
Library 2.0
• Library 2.0 is all about library users -- keeping those we have
  while actively seeking those who do not currently use our
  services. It's about embracing those ideas and technologies
  that can assist libraries in delivering services to these groups,
  and it's about participation -- involving users in service creation
  and evaluation.quot; Michael Casey, LibraryCrunch
• quot;Library 2.0 is very much influenced by technology-driven, two-
  way, social interactions between staff and staff or staff and
  patrons.quot; John Blyberg, Blyberg.net
• quot;Library 2.0 is the natural evolution of library services to a level
  where the library user is in control of how and when she gets
  access to the services she needs and wants.quot; Thomas Brevik,
  Library 1.5
Library 2.0



   • Gives library users a participatory role in the
     services libraries offer and the way they are
     used.
   • Embracing it becomes necessary so as to be
     in a position to respond to changing user
     needs and ensuring the library is in a strong
     position to effectively meet those needs now
     and in the future.

   Instant Messaging (IM) & Virtual Reference

   • IM enables real-time text communication between individuals.
     Analogous to the face-to-face reference interview. Considered
     'Library 2.' even though in existence for some time, as it gives
     the user a presence within the library web space, and it
     facilitates collaboration between the patron and the library.

      Examples:
      http://www.fordlibrary.org/chat/ (using Meebo)
      Lansing Public Library - http://www.lansing.lib.il.us/
      Exeter Public Library, RI - http://131.109.225.131/exelib/
Library 2.0   Implementation
Library 2.0                                      Implementation


   Instant Messaging

   •   On your blog or webpage, you set up
       Meebo, Plugoo, or Gabbly.
   •   Visitors on your site can then see the
       chat window and type a message in
       it to send it to you.
   •   This chat service is directly connected
       to your Instant Messenger and
       forwards you in real time all the
       messages your visitors send you.
   •   You answer to the visitor directly
       from your Instant Messenger in real
       time.

   Wikis

   • subject-based wikis in which users suggest resources and ask
     questions.
   • local history (involving local history societies)
   • reading club

   Blogs

   •   key way for libraries to engage users, enhance community interaction
   •   allowing library users to discuss plans and ask questions.
   •   news service / announcements
   •   what's new - books, DVDs
   •   promote resources (e.g. collections, new material, fiction), services
   •   promote and discuss events/programmes (marketing and promotion) -
       utilising RSS
   •   readers' advisory portal
   •   book reviews, award lists, book discussion areas - library customers
       have favourite titles, authors, and genres. Allows them to comment,
       write reviews, create their own tags and ratings, and share them with
       others.
   •   topics for genres - mystery, horror, SF, romance
   •   reports of activity on a project (research, building, plans)
