#15 Library 2.0 and Web 2.0

The library as repository of knowledge, as meditative space, as a temple of the book.
Interesting that Wendy Schulz's article posits a Library 4.0, a retreat with comfortable chairs, quiet, a single malt. The dilemma - to bring the innovation, interactivity, the user-centred focus of Library 2.0 into our libraries and to make it accessible to all, not just the techno-savvy.
Maintain all that's wonderful about the old-fashioned notion of the Library as a sacred space for learning and launch it into cyberspace.
