Library 2.0 contined

Walt provides a nice overview of Library 2.0 in his Cites & Insights Midwinter 2006 issue . I’m still reading it but my take on Library 2.0 still stands. Libraries are about people. “Library 2.0″ seems to be a rush to use technology, without considering how to use it. Like Walt, I think that “Library 2.0” gets in the way of Library 2.0. I’ll have more detailed thoughts once I finish reading Walt’s essay.
