Web 2.0 - round 2 - Summary

Another great ride.

Some excellent sites and some less so, but it does depend on the potential user so it is a good idea to be aware.

( You don't need to have read all the books in the library to be able to successfully promote reader advisory services - but you need to know how and where to find them. Same for the internet in my view)


Available work time can be a real issue for some of us.

Well done everybody

Web2.0-round 2-week 6- EnCompassCulture

This is another great site and would be a worthwhile addition to our learn net.

Is user friendly and would be easy to promote .

Some similarity between GoodReads and even our aquabrowser.

Another excellent tool for library staff to assist our customers in reader advisory.
